A woman owns this garage and has worked on my 8 before. I am getting ready to take it to her for plug, maybe coils if needed. Also brakes. One of her mechanics drives a beoutiful RX-7.

There is also a garage in Hollywood called Mazada pros who also worked on my car when he was located in Coral Gables. This guys has a collection of Mazda rotary cars. I would prefer him but the Miami location is closer.

thanks for the help. i sent my 8 to get new plugs, coils, and wires and they could'nt even figure out how to pop the airbox out let alone wire the thing. I should finally have everything straightened out with him tomorow but i will most proboly be going somewhere else next time. thanks again, mark

any more info on the shop in hollywood, thats right around my way...sometimes its good to let a 3rd arty person take a look at the car, esp when its a rotary enthusiast. sometimes i feel the dealer purposely overlook things to save themselves a few bucks.

Pettit Racing aka Excellent Performance in Palm Beach. They currently have RX-8s in their shop from New York and Wisconsin... that's a lot farther than North Miami

Here you go, Mazda Pros.
I used to take my car to them for regular oil changes. They look at everything even with simple service. Good pricing as well.

Just had the following done at this garage.
plugs & wires
Both back struts with one stud replaced
Oil pan re-seal plus change
interior temp control panel replaced
diff fluid change
transmission fluid changed

brakes were still good.

The guy that did the work will be at Koni Challenge on March 14 with his RX-7. Awesome looking machine.
