Lightspeed was one of the more popular and respected names in Honda parts in the '80s and '90s before everybody and his brother started selling parts. When I built my first Honda racecar in '92, I used a lot of their parts. I still have a header for an EF/CRX waiting to be used again. It was pretty good stuff.

The company got bought out or merged with in the late '90s and and the name has pretty much disappeared. You can expect it was a pretty nice part that was well thought out but based on it's age may not be considered too aggressive by modern standards.

What it is worth used depends entirely upon what someone will give for it. My rule of thumb when buying and selling used parts that are in used but good and functional condition it that they are worth about half of what new replacement would cost.

LOL...what else is there to know? If you want to know what it would sell for put "Offer" on it and see what you get.

Like everyone else said, it is a really old skool brand. If you look at a mid 90's sport compact car magazine, you'll see their products and ads everywhere. If it is an older part it is probably of decent quality. If it is a brand new part, someone probably just bought the name is making the parts in china or the like in order to break back into the industry.
