Jesus, didn't this thread get filled with lots of bullshit quick. I assume everyone knew that Apexi Japan was in financial strife (hence they pulled out of D1) and that they filled for government support to prevent bankruptcy. It would also be safe to assume that they got their support judging by what nengun has posted up regarding Apexi resuming business as usual. Offcourse u won’t find any info on Google regarding this issue, the only one's concerned are Apexi's dealers who have mostly posted info on their sites and the consumers who talk about it on forums

that is incorrect!

Apexi pull out of Japan D1 to foucs of the USA D1 ... or so they said in the option video... they also said somsething about bigger market for there products that is why they were foucing on usa

[bnr#@]

did they say anything about their 5,300,000,000 Yen debt in Option videos to?

I heard it was the guy behind the grassy knoll

[PHATR32]

its a good way to get fools to snap up all their old stock........

[gts-4 dreamer]

what he said

[Onthehunt]

does anyone actually know what is happening? i want a pfc for my 33...i spoke to a car place today and they said it should be going back to normal soon, they said that's what they got told by supplier

[R34GTFOUR]

its a good way to get fools to snap up all their old stock........

its almost like that south park episode where eric buys a theme park and doesnt let anybody in, but that only makes people want to go in even more. Same principle, you cant have this ecu, so people go crazy

[Pauly33GTS-t]

thats cause everyone wants to save 200-400 dollars.... trying to save face. ah yes. If I can't find a Power FC within 2 months, im going to just bite the bullet and get a Haltech E11.

[Beer Baron]

just like the killer toys you have seen in so many movies and the simpsons the Power FCs were programmed to take out what they consider lesser ecus. sit your PFC down next to a microtech and see what happens! They also have a milenium bug that will hit when we reach the year 2010. all PFCs will simultaneously advance timing to max, and lean out your fuel which will result in massive japanese car explosions world wide. this was perpetrated by apexera's US operation as a punishment for apexera japan using their japanese language which made it hard for US customers to understand anything. after being made to feel silly, and pissed off at the lack of an english manual for PFC even after 10+years of OS sales the US operation outsourced some coding to indian skyline terrorists. so my advice to you is don't do driving on 10/10/10.... aka D-Day (detonation day).

LOL at the amount of crap being tossed around here...

This is from a source from Japan (one of Apexera's competitors);

Apexi has shifted it's market focus from Japan to the USA where Trust and HKS already have a solid market base. Apexi; in the hope of establishing themselves quickly have flooded the US market with copious amounts of "small" parts - this has lowered the brandname from a reputable tuning house from Japan to something similiar to your SuperCheaps or Autobarns. A lot of the Apexi products are NOT selling in the USA and have subsequently been returned leading to a profit loss. This change in direction has not only cost Apexi the initial setup $$$ but also big amounts from profit not earned from an uninterested US market.

Makes a lot of sense; explains why the APexi range has slowly become "discontinued" as it believes that the USA market is the way to go (how many Skylines are in the US?)

same thing i said about the d1...

[legend01]

Damn , DD day i'm locking the front door now

[gts-4 dreamer]

go cut some hair uleh

[VB-]

so are they making mre PFC's? i thought his being discontinued was for other reason, and it happened before the bankruptcy? heres my version of the bullsh*t: i have heard from several sources the NEC who make the boards for the PFC stopped making them or something? there are a couple of other reasons to which i cant remember right no

[paulr33]

NEC stopped production of the chip used in the ECR33 & ER34 PowerFCS.

The chipset im pretty sure is the DF74 cpu and the GTR PowerFC uses a different CPU so they are still being made.

A few PFC versions have been canned, the wrx was one of them, the pro versions are gone and so to are the ap engineering versions.

But the mainstream FCs are still being made and still avaiable at the normal cheap prices. I brought a BNR32 PFC for $840 brand new and should have it in 1.5 weeks delivered to AUS so certainly no issues there

[VB-]

got a list of the PFC's still being made? i've seen it somewhere but cant rememebr where, think it was on nengun or something?
