Our Story & The Crew

Been turning wrenches and pushing limits since we opened the bay doors

How We Got Here

Shop opening

The Beginning - 2018

Started in a cramped two-bay garage off Industrial Way. Just me, a buddy, and way too much coffee. We were fixing up our own rides on weekends and folks kept asking if we'd work on theirs too. Figured why not make it legit, y'know?

Dyno installation

Getting Serious - 2020

Invested in our first dyno setup. Game changer. No more guessing on tunes - we could actually see what each mod was doing. Word spread fast around the Vancouver scene and suddenly we're booked solid three weeks out.

Shop expansion

Expansion Time - 2022

Moved to the current spot with six full bays and proper equipment. Added alignment racks, lift systems, the whole nine yards. Started bringing on talented folks who actually give a damn about the work.

Current operations

Right Now - 2025

Running full tilt with a solid crew and a reputation we're proud of. From daily drivers needing brake work to full custom builds - we handle it all. Still love what we do, still learning new stuff every week.

Meet The Team

Each one of us brings something different to the table. We're not just wrenching - we're problem solvers who happen to love cars.

What We're Actually About

Look, we're not gonna feed you some corporate mission statement that sounds like it came from a boardroom. Here's the real deal - we love cars, we love making 'em better, and we respect folks who trust us with their rides.

Whether you're bringing in a daily driver that needs new brakes or a project car you've been dreaming about for years, we treat it the same. Your car matters to you, so it matters to us. Simple as that.

We don't cut corners, we don't oversell stuff you don't need, and we actually answer the phone when you call. Seems like basics, but you'd be surprised how rare that is these days.
