NYCGPS Compression test for you !
 

Ok Guys/Gals. I will be running a compression test event @ either the May 26-27 Weekend, or June 2-3 Weekend, depends on Weather and my work schedule (so if it rains on May26, the event will be push to the next weekend, if it rains again ... another weekend)

What is this for?

I will be doing a few compression test for people using Mazda's compression Tester tool. There will be a charge/fee and trust me it will be MUCH lower than what Mazda charges. and for another few bucks, I can swap all spark plugs for you, great for those people who has no tools at home to do it himself/herself. If you don't have the Spark plugs, I have a load of them here and I just gonna charge you what I paid for them, which is roughly about 85 for 4 (we all loves NYC tax ...)

I'm starting it here first to see how many people are interested in this, I need at least 10 people to start this "event"

Mod, I'm not sure if I need to do a "group buy" thing cuz honestly I'm not "selling" anything ... I start this thread to see how many people are interested in doing this first, if there are enough people, then I will see :)

Almost forgot, I also have the Mazda's Vacuum Testing tool, most people have no idea what this is, but a vacuum test will also tell you how healthy your engine is. I can do it for another small charge. Final fee TBA, it will be less than 1/2 of what Mazda typically wants to charge you for :)

Oh by the way, This works for ALL Rotary Engine!(except the Vacuum test, which I think only works on Rx-8), so if you have a FD/FC/FB/SA22C/REPU/COSMO/Your plane(not recommended)/etc, just come !

First come first serve basis, if you register (and pay) first, you get the first spot, and so and so and so.

I expect each test to take around 15/mintues to 1/2 hour.

Location : I'm thinking of going to our regular local meet area, there is a big parking lot there, busy on weekends tho ... if anybody has a good place/big parking lot then let me know !

Well, see if you're interested. Dates might push back another week cuz I "might" have something to do. Dunno for sure yet.

Rx-8 comes first ! :Peace:

well alot of the work i have to do is rx8 related before dyno day on the 9th.

You can put me on the list as long it's not gonna happened on June 9th
Would like to know if the price is the same as we talked about it before.
Thanks

Yep, maybe something in the middle just for the test, then add another couple bux will remove/replace the other 2 Spark, and another couple of bux will do the Vacuum test.

Will do it only if there is about 10 people or more, and you guys will HAVE to send me the payment before hand, with your name, I will then print the list out and I will have to check your ID for verification purposes. (unless I know you already of course)

Come on People, don't you guys wanna know the health of ur engine? :)

Count me in :) Where is the parking lot? I just wanna see how far from me is it.

Moar info on vacuum test?

please see the first post of our nyc queens meet thread for more info

search u damn noob!

i can more info but im out right now and it sucks to type with a phone

im kinda scared to know. my warranty just ran out but i dont have any problems with my car(knocks on wood)

^^lol! well, I know how u feel ... :)


Anybody? wow I'm shocked cuz I see all these people bitching about getting rip off by dealerships, now there is a way to do it at less than 1/2 the price and nobody is doing it ? :-\

I want to be on the list
Come on people!

Compression test is like AIDS test ... people are scared

Bump
Come on people this is a great deal!

@nycgps
We had a Spring meet and I volunteered to do compression tests for those that wanted it.
I would have died if I did have two other members helping me.

One person was organizing and such, getting water, beer, making sure people had there wheel locks!

The other guy was Prepping the cars, and or doing compression tests as well.

I also made each person take off/on their own wheels, as there was no way I wanted to scratch some of those really expensive spokes out there.

WOW..I can't believe the lack of responses...

Jackson's Compression Tester IS Mazda's GENUINE latest and greatest Tester for ALL Rotary Engines.

This is not a toy but the READ DEAL!.....

Even IF your RX-8 is just about to run out of warranty, what a great way of showing your Mazda Dealer that you need a new engine or are close to needing one....
you know you need this information for future reference.;)

Fixed

mmmmmmm .... good point ...

Unless their wheels have really weird offset, I should have no problem keeping it and do the test. I keep my wheels on while replacing spark plugs :)

Meh. I mean I am not trying to make a few bux here (ok, maybe just a little) but hey, people would rather go dealership and pay 100s of dollars to do the test ? and sometimes they even do their test wrong. mmmm. I don't know man. Time is running out. if there is not enough respond by next friday then ... Sorry Motomouse! :(

Dates don't work for me.... otherwise I'm totally up for the road trip.

I am sure Speed1 will compression test you if you want man

Count me in.
