Grow the hell up people. Mattback, keep your shit talking off of my forum. The last thing we need is more people throwing decent topics into a tailspin.

Greddy did this to themselves. You start shifting away from hard parts like headgaskets, fasteners, and turbo kits to hock friggin catch cans... no wonder after only being in a slowdown for 6 months they go belly up. You think your main market of McDonalds employees can buy your shiftknobs when they're trying to afford gas? The knock-offs don't help, but that honestly shouldn't matter to a company with Greddy's history. The most complicated parts that China are knocking off are intake manifolds, and they suck at it. All the other parts are stupid "lifestyle" parts, not their core go-fast parts. Shame on them for buying into that crap. This reeks of mis-management, only amplified by the marketplace and economy.
