| rx7 shops
So I know i'll probably get some guys telling me to do my research but I already have. I read the threads bashing force fed and I heard some good about staffs but at the same time i'm wondering if there are any other good shops for rx7 work that is reasonable pricing.
Any REAL advice would be helpful

Are you on an exclusive RX7 forum? That's where i would start. Go to a couple meets and hear what's up and where people go.

mj check bcrotary.com, the shop list is still up, though I'm not sure when it was last updated. You'll at least be able to get the shop names and google them.
its in the rotary talk forum.
couple that I know of locally are:
Eunos in North Van
Tekam in Burnaby

they moved.
and rotary rage, it's always best to call around.
mj.rx7 are you looking for someone to build you a race car? or are you looking for restoration work? or just factory spec work?

^they are. They moved last month or the month before. I'm interested to see what happens when the new shop opens up.
And RR, not everyone likes Marko and vice versa.

Go to rx7club.com.
Read up on other 20B builds. Some of them listed out how much money it's taken. It's ridiculous and you should really know what you're getting into before you make that decision.

i've done my research on 20B's and do understand what they take to maintain and all the work it takes to upgrade the car in order to take it. but i will check out the forums on there as i just got an account.

If your going 20b expect to fork out 10 grand by the time your any where to near finished. For what you get it is strickly a status thing. honestly for the slight power upgrade with a whole lot less after market support you could go 13bt for a hell of alot less with the same amount of achievable performance
20b is for the epeen rotary guys saying "hey my cock is bigger then yours, but only slightly"
go 13bt get a microtech, street port birdge port, monster port what every porting you choose. replace your apex seal with aviation seals, go hybrid turbo (knight sports makes an amazing hybrid) front mount IC. All of that for less money then you would spend on just the 20b alone.
not to discourage you but I hope you have deep deep pockets to go with a 20b.

4 grand is alittle high i would expect porting with that
expect to pay atleast 2grand for a full gasket and seal rebuild
or just buy the kit and do it yourself rotaries are cake if you have any mechanical knowledge
honeslty your best bet is call around

Yeah still here in Kelowna, haha my FD's alright as always a constant project. All the shops are alright, here in BC tho every shop gets a bad rep by one person or another. I'm biased as I've only personally been to Forcefed. But as once said in this thread before, call around get to know the shops and the people that work there. BC Rotary is a good place to ask around as well.

ya I was thinking about picking up the kit and doing it myself as i've worked on cars all my life but wasn't sure how easy it would be. and I thought 4 was kind of steep but thought i'd ask. As far as force fed as I put earlier i was looking at going there but then saw the thread saying they weren't any good cause all i can do is try
