    Default Thumbs up to Five Star Tuning

    I want to give a big to mike at five star tuning. this guy knows his rotaries and mechanical stuff in general and the prices were lower than half the price of what other shops were charging. He installed for me:

    1. 3 autometer gauges
    2. triple a-pillar gauge pod
    3. downpipe
    4. ast (air seperation tank)
    5. complete tune up: plugs, wires and oil change
    6. put brand new belts on (all the way around)
    7. new calipers, brakes and rotors (all the way around)
    8. complete coolant flush
    9. driver door handle

    there is probably more but right now i cant think of anything. anyway thanks mike and of course when the other goodies get here i will let u know.

    Yeah, Mike does a excellent job plus half the labor charges other shops would charge. He even came with me to the emissions place. I got my other parts in. Finally. I'll give you a call Mike.

    No I haven't, but I would love to get my hands on one and start modding them and the other late model mazda turbo cars. I would really like to see a CX-7 with some mods done to it.

    Thumbs up

    Michael, aka "Five-Star Tuning" aka "GeadheadMike" just started working at my shop and is looking to do some of his Mazda work and other Jap import work up here at the shop. He has dealt with the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gen RX-7 models and also owns an 04' Mazda RX-8.

    He has been into cars since birth and has 13 years experience turning wrenches and building fast cars. He had built a 10second legal "street car" (in his garage) by the age of 20 and the car started out bone stock. He loves road racing, drifting, and drag racing and is willing to work on just about any project, including fabrication and welding.


    Contact us @ (678)482-2221 and ask for Michael or Thomas
