I cried for days.

No but seriously, I had every part they make on my list of stuff to get someday when I could afford it. I'm sure many others had the same.

Where are we going to get our reinforced diffs from now? What about the killer sway bar setups? The famous lightened flywheel we all love.

I really hope someone picks them up. Good peoples.

Right now I'm wishing I picked up that TI tie bar. Hopefully I can find someone that still has one in stock...

It's always sad to me when a business closes its doors for whatever reasons. Comptech has been a pretty big part of Honda racing history and I'm kind of sad to see them go.

I think this is what the rumors were.. Though from what my sources tell me, no one really knows why... which sucks.. b/c they were the major company that allowed California tuners to mod legally... I would actually love to see their business model and see why such a successful company all of the sudden failed.

IF the comptech owners aren't that stupid... they would sell their patents as well as their rights to these CARB certified products to make up whatever they need to pay off their creditors. Though I suspect some companies have already made a bid for these rights. So many entrepenuers will benefit greatly from this... Perhaps we will see a drop in prices..


my two cents on the comptech reinforced diff.. This product was the greatest hyped product that they produced for the S2000. From a design stand point and actual functionality stand point I could hardly see how two pieces of metal on the out side of the rear diff could do any reinforcing... oh wells. someone needs to explain that one to me,,,
