Our Story & The Team Behind It

Built on sweat, late nights, and a genuine love for what makes cars tick

How We Got Started

Back in 2011, I was working out of my buddy's garage with basically a decent scan tool and way too much confidence. Started taking on cars that other shops wouldn't touch - weird electrical gremlins, engine codes that didn't make sense, performance builds that needed someone who actually cared.

Word got around pretty quick. Turns out there's a lot of folks tired of being told "we can't figure it out" or getting hit with ridiculous diagnostic fees just to hear guesses. So we kept at it, reinvested every dollar into better equipment, training, and eventually this place on Industrial Way.

Now we've got a solid crew, probably the best diagnostic setup in Vancouver, and we're still doing what we love - solving problems and making cars run the way they should. No corporate nonsense, just honest work.

What Drives Us

We're not trying to be the biggest shop in town. We'd rather be the one you actually trust with your ride. Every car that comes through gets treated like it matters - because it does.

The Journey So Far

Started From The Bottom
2011

One bay garage, basic tools, and way more ambition than sense. Took on my first independent client work doing diagnostics other shops gave up on.

First Real Shop Space
2014

Finally scraped together enough to lease a proper bay. Added transmission work and brought on Jake, who's still with us kicking ass on rebuilds.

Performance Tuning Launch
2017

Invested in ECU remapping equipment and proper dyno access. Started building a rep in the performance scene - street cars, track builds, the works.

Moved to Industrial Way
2020

Current location with 4 bays, dedicated diagnostic station, and room to actually breathe. Team grew to 6 full-timers who know their stuff.

Advanced Systems Certified
2022

Got certified on hybrid and electric vehicle systems. Can't ignore where the industry's heading, and honestly the tech is pretty cool.

Still Going Strong
2025

Over 3,000 vehicles serviced, countless problems solved, and we're still learning something new every week. That's what keeps it interesting.
