At least no one is making excuses...

Saw this coming from a mile away

Not a big deal in my eyes.... they will still be around just harder to distribute the product throughout the states.

I hope mackin industries or another major distributor can make a deal with them to import/distribute...that way prices won't skyrocket for hks items

Did you miss the part about the declining US dollar? Expect a 30% increase in prices.

I think HKS's unique market position has dwindled significantly in years past. They used to be one of the few companies producing turbo kits / turbo products for select cars, now there's several options for nearly every make and model. Companies like Turbonetics / Garrett / Comp Turbo / Bullseye have reduced HKS's footprint on the market. HKS still makes outstanding products, I just think that buyers are utilizing more of their options than before.

I hope HKS can still stick around, but I think they will need to evolve a bit to succeed.

No one drives Civics anymore and Supras, NSX's and Skylines are (WAY)overpriced. I'm surprised they made it this long, honestly.

Man, the honda game in cali is still strong.

I think the issue is no one likes good quality parts anymore, everyone's rocking megan racing, xxr, rota, nrg, ssautochrome, and every other phony bologna chinese knockoff parts maker.
