New guy looking for local rx7 repair

uvasmeds · 11-02-2015, 03:39 PM

Hi - I've been an inactive member since 2013. I have an 84 RX7 GS and am looking for some maintenance work to replace an oil gasket and maybe some radiator work in Fairfax Virginia. Anyone have any recommendations? Thanks.

Which oil gasket? The pan? Little harder to do but can be done on jackstands.

Radiator repair? Buy a Koyo and replace it. Be cheaper and easier to do.

But for repair shops if you don't want to do it yourself their used to be a place in Sterling called First to Win or something like that. The Mazda dealers are expensive but most have someone who knows the cars.

That being said most other owner's can be enticed with free beer or food if you are willing to help and learn how to fix it yourself.
