bs..
They still add things to the list of parts available for the 92-95 model civics and da and dc integra. As long as we buy parts somebody is wanting to make money off of us.

God i hope not

i second kenchan, buy your aftermarket parts while they're still available

they still make parts, revise them, and add new ones as well. like madhatch said as long as people are buying they will be making them

apparently, people aren't buying if Trust/Greddy filed for bankruptcy

sorry... i've been listening to a lot of political news while sitting through traffic and all they talk about is the F-ed up global economy. it's got me all bummed out. i really do hope companies continue to R&D for our GD3's

Don't quote me on this but I thought about 60,000 07s and 70,000 08s were supposed to have been sold. 130K or there about.

I am not too concerned whether or not they keep coming out with new stuff for the fit. I already lowered my car how I wanted to and that was the only aftermarket thing I have really done. The only other thing I would be interested in would be forced induction but idk about that either only time will tell.

IT DOESNT MATTER. The Fit has developed quite a following and is what the early Civic's were. This thread is useles.... a new intake and Exhaust were just designed for the GD... ARC is about to release their Intake, and I KNOW FOR A FACT that there are companies designing and R&D'ing some NEW products for the GD.

or Greddy just didn't have the talent to evolutionize.

they needed to think seriously about offering a more customer
specific product line in this economy and this day and age.

shut the heck up....

Greddy tried their best already by introducing cheaper chinese made parts with greddy quality for the buyers....

but, people like you are still too cheap to buy them obviously....

Chill out Jeeper no need to get hostile this thread is all speculations and opinions on what might happen and everyone has a right to post. So there really is no need for you to get so angry and there is no reason for this thread to be closed.

Fortunately there are enough around the world to justify continues production. As long as you can get turbos, SC, exhausts etc why worry. What else are you hoping gets developed?

i kinda wished RSR (or even REMUS) would do an exhaust for us... most of the exhaust for our
FitS are just too big boar for my tastes. and too loud.
