Big thumbs up for Kaz's Health Check service. Well worth every penny.
I now have an honestly compiled and detailed schedule to work to for service and repairs.
A thoroughly nice chap too.
Cheers Kaz.
In the nicest possible way, and no offense meant or implied to Kaz, is this different to what you'd get from an HUK service/checkup? Is it better, cheaper or both?
Are we admitting that our cars are better "serviced" outside of the official Honda UK dealer network or just looking for better value?
In the longer term NSX owners will need specialists to service our steeds as the official HUK dealers lose both the capability (skill) interest (will) to look after them.
Cheers

I would have to say yes. Kaz is more than qualified to work on NSX's, has more knowledge than your average NSX technician, I would trust him more for an unbiased report as he is not necessarily doing the checkup to get work for himself but pointing out what is required for you to do yourself if you are able and prioritise your service schedule. He also supplies photographs to back up any diagnosis where possible. He also enjoys it.
Down to personal choice maybe? NSX service centres don't officially exist anymore AFAIK, so who will be actually servicing your car when you hand over the keys? I know some still have NSX Techs working there but they are a dying breed as you point out.
I have 16 years worth of Honda stamps in my service book and would probably take it to them for the odd stamp but I personally have no qualms with someone like Kaz or another specialised garage to do the job as there is no dedicated NSX centres left.

I dropped my car off at Kaz's place yesterday for a CCU service and health check and three things struck me immediately:
1. His wealth of knowledge about the NSX
2. His attention to detail
3. His genuine enthusiasm in what he does
In short, I consider myself lucky to be able to call upon his services and feel reassured that my NSX is in very safe hands (I don't get that feeling when I visit Chiswick Honda).

I concur with comments above, Kaz's knowledge about the NSX is second to none, and once you get him started on a job, it takes a herd of wild elephants to drag him off it. I'm popping round again this weekend as he has a few ideas about my headlight electrical problem.
I would use Kaz before any HUK tech, NSX trained or not.

Kaz,
I gave my wiper arms to a mate that was getting some bits powder coated and they came up like new.
Cheers,
