well, if you cant get your parts here

then talk to jt-imports from japan, he'll get you anything

ooooh... everybody with super duper parts from japan

don't forget other countries that recieved the later 7's like Australia and New Zealand, they probably have engine parts aswell.

...i was talking to one of the mechanics and he told me that mazda stopped manufacturing remans. he said it was a huge problem...

this is not true. at the moment they have a shortage of cores (reason for the delays) and they are also in the midle of switching plants from Florida to Texas (if memory serves).

ONLY 93's are in shortage right now. you can call up and get any other motor you want. i am sure in a few months things will be back to normal....

So what, they have 94 cores available??

Im one of the many waiting on a Reman from Mazda through Gotham

Im trying to decide on what to do since my core isnt rebuilldable.

Tyson and a few others seem to know whats going on, can you give me your opinion of how long till most backorders might be shipped?

I hear there are over 100 motors on BackOrder.

is 2-3 months an ambitious timeframe??

I talked to Jeff from Pettit Racing today and I brought this subject up with him and he says it's total bs. From what he said Pettit at least won't have any problem, and doesn't have any problem with getting remanned engines. I tried KD Rotary but their line was disconnected?? # change probably. Anyway, if he's not worried about it I'm not either...... yet....

They actually moved their location cause they got triple leased. I didnt know that so i drove 2 hours up to nazareth to see my car on friday and when i got up there the building was empty. No cars, NOTHING. i got scared cause i was wondering where my car was. There was a guy there moving their lift and he told me that they moved and gave me directions. They moved to a town outside of reading called shoemakersville. Their new building is huge and they are still moving all of their equipment in.
