Trust is essentially the parent company of GReddy.

In Japan, the company name is Trust.
In the US, the company name is GReddy.

You're not retarded. You just didn't know.

If they are the same company as Greddy and the products are the same why does it matter?

Damn, I swear the aftermarket car parts industry is as bad as the clothing industry.

No, I'd never pay more money and more shipping just to buy the same exact identicle product (even made by the same company) just cause it has a different name on it.

Now I WOULD pay more for a particular product that has better quality.....however in this case its not better.

In addition Greddy IS a name brand label.....the same brand as Trust as a matter of fact, its just 2 different names for 2 different countries

And, yes your right it doesnt affect me and I dont really care how you spend you money. I was just stating my opinion on a public message board. If you dont like it dont post on a public discussion board

Everyone who wants to pretend it's something more exotic than just a Mazda... and would rather no one else knew it was just a Mazda either...

You wont find one on my car thats for sure

However, I do know people that have one but they did it cause they like the way it looks better than the original badge. BUT, see there is a difference between the 2 badges, they are cosmetically different. The same exact exhaust with just a different name stamped on it isnt quite the same thing.

Here check this out. A webpage is worth 1000 words

Just look at the top. TRUST is the company, Greddy, Grex etc.... are all LINES.... Although most of our products here say TRUST

LEVIs is the company, silvertap, 501s etc... are the LINES.
