HKS Closed?
I heard today, from a dealer, that HKS has closed it's doors. Anyone else know anything about this?

I was just about to send my ignition box back for repair, and was told.

Thanks.

That I do not know. I would try contacting some HKS resellers and see if they know what is happening with warranty work and repairs.

Been trying to find out some stats on coils as well.. no one knows what to do I don't think.


You best bet is to try contacting HKS Europe. Then I would try dealing with HKS Japan if you don't get anywhere.

Knock off companies and stupid North Americans that don't support the originals took their business. So they said not worth our time, call us in Japan if you want our parts.

This is what happens when you buy fake parts, nobody seems to understand that buying knock off parts DOES hurt the original manufacture.
