Quoted for truth, nice timeline.

If anyone has been in any sort of legal claim it definetly takes time - years even.

It's obvious that J's did not post it on their blog without having their facts straight, especially when the world can see it. How embarrasing would that be if J's posted faulty material (for arguments sake) right away?

Like 5zigen said, let's wait to see what happens.

I remember one time I called in and asked if they could get a J's Racing 60RS for me. They gave me an honest answer saying that the resonator will break so they offered me a "AJR edition with reinforced resonator." I was like WTF no thanks and walked away...was def weird.

Well if they carry T1R, doesn't that mean they have some sort of relationship?

Chances are, local import tuner shops are one way or another related to AJR - which sucks for people that want to mod, without getting taxed on duties/shipping. Just saying it how it is.

Gearheads also sell T1R products... where some were marked at even a lower price than AJR. I asked the staff @ AJR once if they are affiliated with Gearheads and they said no, but they know the owner as he use to work at AJR (?). I thought it was rather, uh, strange.

people worked in a company and later branch out to their own company are common...

And let me get this right...
Type One Racing = Japanese brand... usually called "type one"....
T1R = AJ's stuff, but it's also called Type One Racing?

gearheads is a diff company but they're friends with A&J. Gearheads was started/owned by MooMan (Justin) who used to work at A&J but he sold it to..? (i'm not sure).

T1R is AJ's brand and "Type One Racing" is the real JDM brand.

Type One Racing in Japan is actually a mechanic shop, they don't make parts.

this has been brought up in this thread...

'TYPE ONE' is an actual shop for Spoon Sports, where sales and service take place.
'SPOON SPORTS' is the brand for those products.
'T1R = TYPE ONE RACING' is AJ-R's own line of products.

^ what they all said. From what I could tell back when the T1R brand first came out, it was "Aj's" brand. That could mean anything from designing the product themselves, or finding other companies that already made a decent product and rebranded it as "T1R".

My T1R voltage stabilizer was made by some v-max company back in the days which worked pretty good. Overall, I find that their T1R line has some nice stuff including a catback I'm running currently. I however, would be yelling if I bought a fake j's racing exhaust!
