Neptune Speed!!

I just have to drop a line here. I went Neptune speed and meet Yoshiya and Yoskai(sp?)... These guys are great!! I don't think anyone else will touch my 8 again. They're both rotary fans!! (of course) and really know there stuff. Nice and professional... I'm def going to support the shop. I know alot of us like to work on our own cars and try and figure things out if we don't know what we're doing.... but consider taking your cars here, having these guys do our oil changes and little small stuff like that would help the doors stay open!!!

A++ for Neptune Speed!!!

chester: you're getting big points for searching!
Yoshiya is THE MAN. I've been using his shop for years (he even hosted a dyno day for us: 18 cars getting dyno'd tuned) and it's the only shop that touches my RX-8.

I've always just had Yoshiya fix the problem. I'm sure if peopel are going in there just for diagnosis then there's gotta be some kind of charge.

My car goes back in there next week for a little work

Phil: no matter WHAT Ray says about you....you're alright in MY book!
(which means you're always welcome)

Most likely using SR since NeptuneSpeed is pretty swamped lately with RX-7s so not sure if we could take over the shop for a whole day.
I'll keep you posted on the next one. (probably won't be until Jan / Feb)
