About

At Makiki Auto Repair, we built this shop around one simple idea: Honolulu drivers deserve access to factory-level expertise without paying factory-level prices. Our lead technician is both ASE-Certified and Nissan Factory-Trained at the Master Technician level — a combination that puts him in rare company among independent mechanics on Oahu. That training didn't come from a classroom alone. It came from years of daily, hands-on experience working on some of the most technically demanding vehicles and systems on the road today, including hybrids, EVs, CVT transmissions, and high-performance platforms like the Nissan GT-R R35.
 
We specialize in the Japanese makes that dominate Hawaii's roads — Nissan, Infiniti, Toyota, Lexus, Honda, and Acura — as well as American performance icons like the Chevrolet Corvette. Our shop is located at 1218 Makiki St in Honolulu, HI 96814, conveniently close to Beretania St and Punahou St. When you bring your vehicle to us, you're not getting a service advisor who's never looked under a hood. You're getting direct access to a master technician who takes pride in getting things right the first time. That's the Makiki Auto Repair difference.
