i saw it in the other forums and just knew you cl guys would be obliged to know that comptech is closing shop. they've sited low profits, among other things. you can call them yourselfs and you'll hear the same thing ... however, you won't be able to get through as they have been inundated with calls from dealerships, vendors, and customers. a sad day for honda heads.

rtatsutani

Wow, that's sad... On the brighter side, DO I HEAR A CLOSEOUT SALE!!!

cl8trr

what!!!

cl8trr

their goes the warrantys!!

BigLizard

oh well...RedShift Motorsports is making everybody a bigger supercharger. Better than Comptech's.

EL Cubano

I was on the tl Forums and saw the same thing, But i'll be waiting for that big clearance sale!!!!

cose25

wow. things must have been bad there. hopefully, someone comes in and takes over different name.....i was hoping something for the RDX...

ghost_masterCL

I guess that's what happens when you make products for a niche consumer group. plus their shit was expensive as fuck.

dalostpinoy

damn damn damn....... another manufacture has to step up to fill the whole comptech gonna leave

what if you need parts?

BigLizard

Remember, some offsite part sellers will still be carrying Comptechs products until they are all gone. Unless Comptech CEO decides he wants everything gone immediately.

Shit I might have to buy something if it comes to mind when their super sale goes on.

ill believe it when i OFFICALLY see it.

TheWeez

Went through the same thing with the various nitch SHO parts companies going outta business. Don't think I ever saw a sale from them. Hope to see one here but I'm not holding my breath. Lots of these kinda things are made to order or made in small production runs so even if they did have some kinda clearance sale you'd see like 5 units at a nice price and everyone would be SOL.

noo not yet i still needa buy headers ice box and exuast!!!!!!

TCM 01 CL-S

The first thing I thought of was Clearance!!!!

Any links? Sounds interesting.

I was in contact with a guy from RedShift towards the end of last year and they were supposed to email me about using my CLS-6 as a test car. I haven't heard from them since I would like to see what they can do, but I haven't had the time to keep calling them. Maybe they found somone else's car

by the way, here's their site:

Some people over on the 3g TL boards have called Comptech and have confirmed it, they are going out of buisness.

Damn, there goes the one supply of quality parts for the CL

Its been all talk. Don't hold your breath for them to come out with anything.

BigLizard

I say, if you guys want more information about RedShift Motorsports create an account here.

http://redshift.informe.com/viewtopic.php?t=26

And start asking questions. I did.

dalostpinoy

You own the shop or have stocks with Redshift??? you keep pushing their name


last time I checked, they only manufactured turbos and exhaust, and resold other other performance parts that they did not design themselves

exactly what i was thinking

DUECE_DXJ

How hard do you guys think it will be to get replacement parts for our supercharger?

Sun Diego CL-S

say it ain't so.

that's a big MFin hole to fill!

fuzzy02CLS

iTrader: (2)

Wow, That's nuts, but then again the place charges 2-4 times what it costs them to make their products.
The CL is dead, the RSX is dead, the TL can't use headers, The RL is a low seller, only a small amount of TL buyers mod their cars.
I don't see how they stayed in business this far.

Wow. That sucks. Other companies make parts for Hondas and Acuras, but Comptech makes a better quality part.

ljmushock

Rats!... And I was just getting started...

CLSpeedster

i cant believe it, this is terrible, but on the bright side i think things will be goin on a big sale.

could it be possible there merging or getting bought out. kinda how like AEM and DC Sports merged. that would be wishful thinking for you guys. but seems like there kinda going into the out of buisness direction.

Phew.... good thing I've got everything comptech had to offer.

rondog

they will probably get bought out. But really, all you guys will be missing is the SC, everything else is replaceable by another brand, springs, exhasut, headers, etc. No biggy. On a side note, their service and attitude was kinda shady lately, from what I've heard.

Lord Helmet

I couldn't have said it better.


Meh, life goes on.

I won't be surprised if left-over S/C'ers laying around go for a few bucks more once they close the doors. Kind of a sought after sorta thing.

Paclark01

But those of us who are S/C should try to get service kits if they are available. I know these things need to be rebuilt around 70k or 80k miles.

Joe5.0

There wont be a clearance, if anything their stuff will go up in value since its no longer being made.
