[R32gts-t]

sad stuff...

on the other hand, there are plenty of alternatives, i'm just glad i've got my apexi gear for my car .

[SKY 34]

now we all can have

Apexi

(limited edition)

for all apexi products~~

[paulr33]

bugger hey

hard to see how

such good easy products

not much one can do eh ?

[paulr33]

ah i didnt see this bit;

There will be no problems ordering of Apexi products, as the car parts division will keep running as normal.

We, Apexera are applying for Minjisaiseiho (I don’t know what this is called in English but if translated it means something like Civil Reformation). It’s a type of government support as part of bankruptcy law in Japan. It doesn’t mean the business is finished as yet.

The trouble came out of our other divisions of the business (home security systems, telecommunications etc).

We do not forsee problem in the near future and your orders will not be affected.

thats alright then

Apexi

(limited edition)

yah my brand new Apexi PFC + EBC kit is still sitting at home..uninstalled

will worth more now

[frankxinyu]

They probably would get 1 in a 100 that actually work like everything else they try re producing.. they screwed the market with all their copied crap poor apexi

its funny you say that....

80% of shit you have at home or on your car would be made in China..did they all fail?

EVERY SINGLE car maker nowadays has their production plants in china to produce some parts on the cars...

maybe get ready to start walking again huh?

[trdrz]

So is Apexi still running (the car/performance parts division)?

Everyone said that they went bankrupt but paulr33 quoted that the car division will still be operating?

Whats the answer???

PS: Sorry to resurrect this thread. No point starting a new one...

[Betz]

well I have been waiting 10 weeks for my PFC....

fu Apexi

[Public Enemy]

yeah i been waiting over 2 months for my djetro. starting to wonder if its eva gonna turn up

[paulr33]

hi,

i ordered an rb26 PFC it took approx 1 month and nearly 2 weeks to arrive from jap land.

last time i ordered a PFC about 3 years ago it was paid and sent on the friday and i had it at my place on the monday morning.

nengun get deliveries from apexi at the end of the month so if you order in the middle you wont make the monthly run and youll have to wait another

[philta]

ill miss apexi.

only they make ecu and ebc for idiots like us, easy to install and "tune" ourselfs.

glad i got my avcr.

the rise of Chindia

LOL at the new super power chindia!

[rs73]

Well the 'little' china, Taiwan, had been a well known manufacturers of computer and motherboard PCB products, it's like the silicon valley of the asia.

but again, the old comrades China, even though crappy products also come out from there, again most products you have in your home, be it plasma tv, cameras, dvd players, clothings, shoes, fridge, fans, airconds, your mobile phones, etc. are now mostly made in China.

It is not where it is made that makes something a bad product, it is bad quality control that makes something a bad product.

You can bash chinese products as crappy products as you like now, but if you remember it, japanese products were bashed just as badly after they lost the WW II, no one wold want to buy made in Japan as they're basically knock-off copies of American products. But look at what Japanese products has become and evolved to such high quality products over few decades after the grimmy WW II era. In the 80s-90s, all the best are made in Japan. Before China starts to take over, mainly due to cheaper production and labour cost.

India could be next, and who knows when Indian made products become non-economical 40 years from now due to rising cost, Africa might be the next place to invest, and Africa in the future might just as well be just like China today... the economic wheel will keep turning. No region will stay on top of the wheels all the time.

Isnt this news over 12 months old

[rs73]

It is... but I am well over my time.... by about 1 generation. Perhaps cos I listen to my dad's 1950-60s pop collection as a kid...

So don't blame me for this.

[Bliksem]

not blaming, but I figured the only way youcould have found this topic must have been if you searched for a topic like this as an excuse for a rant

I blame the rap musak.

[rs73]

was looking for confirmation after greddy/trust is told goin bankrupt as well following apexi, and as i hadn't been tinkering with any turbos since I sold my trusty old R33 gtst long time ago, I couldn't believe the rumours. should have checked the dates though.

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

Whats up with these companies?!

You'd figure they would be doing quite well.

[Bakes]
