RPM Motorsports Grand Opening - Saturday May 5th

Hey Everyone,

Figured I'd post this here too

I just noticed that there is a cruise going on in Barrie the same day as our Grand Opening, so I hope not to take people away from the cruise but for those who aren't wanting to make the drive to Barrie that day, you should stop by our new shop location and get a free burger!

Me (Joe) and Dan are inviting everyone to the new shop location for our "Grand Opening" on Saturday May 5th from 10am-until when ever everyone leaves!

We will be BBQ'ing some burgers and hot dogs in the afternoon and anyone is more than welcome to stop by, hang out, talk cars, check out some of the projects we have going on and maybe learn a few things.

Let me know here if you can make it so I know how many burgers to get.

Our new location is:

250 Woolwich St S Unit #12
Breslau Ont
N0B 1M0

Although it looks like we only work on RX-7's, its just my specialty. We have another friend of ours who helps us out after hours working on anything else, he know's his Honda's really well and will be fully licenced in June.
Heres a few pics from around the shop:










Hope to see you there!

No, we dont get into body work at all...

I specialize in rebuilding/porting Rotary engines. Also custom turbo setups, building race cars from ground up, getting more into fabrication now that we have a new TIG welder! We offer powder coating and ceramic coating as well, along with the retail side of things, selling new parts like Greddy, Turbosmart, Yonaka Products, Raceonusa bodykits ect ect.

I've been working on RX-7 and rotaries since I've been 13, so RX-7's is what I know. As for the piston engine cars, our buddy Dave helps us out with them.

I'm UBER busy right now trying to get some of project cars out of the way for our opening, but we can always take the time to talk about cars and any setups someone wants to try with thier car.

BTW, if anyone is planning on showing up for the BBQ, make sure your car is nice and shined up....we may have a camera crew here that day filming for a DVD!

Pharaoh - What do you mean suspention? We can get mostly anything and install if thats what you meant?

mazdaspeedpower - I'm not too familiar with the MS Protege, but I'm a quick learner! What would you like to know?

We're in Breslau on the main street, just north of the smelly Safety Kleen plant on the west side of the street. In the same building as XDG Construction, Unit # 12.

We dont have any signs up yet, but hoping to get them up before the end of the month.

Feel free to stop by anytime!

Question is what do you want to know? On paper I pretty much know every part of the car, and am learning the hands on part slowly. Mazda's are ALOT more complicated than my little J-body, holy fuck.
