Shops around the lower mainland that are good with MKIV Supras?
Wondering what shops around the lower mainland have experience with the MKIV Supra.
Looking for a place that can do everything from servicing all the way to builds and tuning.

Seems like RG loves the 2JZ.
Maybe start by contacting Tommy and let him know what you need.
If not at the end of the day it's got wiring, drive train and an engine.

Seems like Bill and Indy Speed are one of the top shops in the lower mainland. Just you do not hear as much about him as you would with one of the sponsors. One day i will make the drive out and check it out!

Its a simple mid 90's Jap sports car. Pretty sure any local tuner/performance shop can work on them.

Im not interested in dealing with any joe blow at a random shop. When a car that is not common shops do not know the intricacies of them.
When an engine build can cost well over 30k on a car I want to know that the shop that I choose to go to has a very vast understanding of what they are doing.
There is a reason why Titan Motorsports has people being there cars to them from around the world. They understand them better than most anyone else's.
I'm just hoping that there is a hidden gem out there that knows these cars well.

Aside from the good shops mentioned I have seen some good things come from Force Fed when it concerns the 2jz as well.
