NSX Expert. Professional. Meticulous. Competent. On-time Delivery. These are just a few superlatives I can use to describe Kun Chee and his team at GT Japanese Automotive Inc. From start to finish the process was easy. We met for an initial consultation (just like you do going to a surgeon!). The car was carefully evaluated, and an accurate estimate was given. At a mutually convenient time, the car was brought for a period of 3-4 weeks (also agreed upon), and the work was performed as promised.
Photo documentation of progress was provided frequently. Delivery was flawless. Kun is THE master of NSX gen 1s in the northeast. If you are lucky enough to have one and it needs anything done to it, GT Japanese is the place for it. Thank you!

If you own a Japanese made vehicle I cannot recommend any mechanics more than this place. They have experience on exotics as well as daily drivers. They are thorough and find issues before they become headaches. Super Highly Recommended

Friendly and reasonable quote to replace the Alternator in my Sister inlaws 2012 Toyota Camry V6. Most places quoted $300-500 more. In and out quicker than promised.

I brought a used lexus truck to GT Japanese Automotive for a complete baselining, with a laundry list of things to do - basically every fluid needed to be changed, all the "dirty work", including removing oil pans for a deep cleaning. The folks at GT accommodated every detail that I requested.and was even able to squeeze in a last minute wheel alignment on my way to pick up the vehicle. Every service was done professionally and without a single issue. Amazing and highly recommended!
