Epic Autosports
Hey everyone, I'm looking to do a B18B complete swap into my '00 EK hatchback.

I'll be calling around to the Revscene sponsors but will also call non-Revscene sponsors.

Has anyone ever heard of Epic Autosports? They're located in Surrey and their website is www.epicautosports.ca.

If anyone has done business with them before or have any experiences that they'd like to share, I am happy to hear about them.

I tried doing a search through our forums for "Epic Autosports" but came up with nothing.

By the way, this thread is not meant to bash or praise any vendor. If you want to keep your comments confidential then please feel free to PM.

Thanks for helping with my research.

Had my B18B in my Integra swapped out for another, fairly quick and good guys, motor runs good, but just had it done less than a few weeks ago so I can't say much
so far so good though

I know Roy (owner/mechanic) Tim (mechanic)

They did a clutch install on my Z32. They did a fine job no complaints.

By the looks of it, it seems mostly a Honda shop. Tim drives a Skyline so he has a very good background on RB's and most Nissans.

To all other potential people considering "Epic Autosports", here is the same thread on the Civic forum... lots of people are unimpressed with them:

great guys. Roy is great. did a few swaps for me and friends.

everyone will have good and bad experience with shops. for example i have good experiences with epic autosports and bad experiences with G5. its all about which shop you are comfy with.

i know a few people in the vancouvercivics.com that are cool. the rest......

drama drama is what you get when you view that site. admins are nazi, and some of the members are trolls.

but staying on topic..

Roy is a great guy not cocky or high with him self like some of the shop owners out there. he will help you out regardless of your financial limit. go to the shop and look for yourself its not much but they get it done.

Only seen the "epic" sticker on some civics and integras...
