Hey everybody,

Once again starting a new local sales thread, because after looking over the old one I realized that we here have changed quite a bit as what kind of company we are since I put that up!!!

I really believe in only selling products that I would want to use on my own car, so why have anything else up there. Not that there was anything really bad about any of those products, just that I don't really use many of them.

Here's a few of the manufactures that we offer and really enjoy to use their products ourselves:

TiC SST Coilovers-$2,400.00
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/sst_1_big.jpg
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/SST_2_big.jpg

Beautiful bit's they are indeed!!! These are one of the best options out there for the enthusiasts torn between daily driving/track days. These can be set to be exceptionally comfortable for street use, while still being able to hold their own out at the track.

Based off of AST's 4100 series damper, TiC has custom valved them to their own specification, as well as running custom rate Swift main/helper springs. Also not being satisfied with the standard front perh's TiC went ahead and designed their own, and we're able to achieve maximum travel by dong so.

Here are a few more specifics from TiC's page:

What you get:

* Custom valved to TiC specification AST rebound adjustable height adjustable dampers
* Longest damper stroke of any common street setup we've been able to find
* Swift mainsprings
* Swift helper springs
* Custom made TiC front perches to allow for more travel
* AST competition bumpstops
* Rubber accordion style dust boots


The few more details:

* These are NOT for slamming your car!!! If that's all you're interested in then go elsewhere. These were designed and massaged with performance being the foremost thought in our minds. Since Imprezas actually handle worse when slammed then we didn't even consider tucking the tires.
* Dampers - 12 "clicks" of adjustment
* Total front damper stroke - 164mm (6.46")
* Total rear damper stroke - 190mm (7.48")
* Front spring - 60mm ID, 203mm (7.99") long, 7K (392lbs) Swift coilover main spring
* Rear spring - 60mm ID, 228mm (8.98") long, 5K (280lbs) Swift coilover main spring
* Helper springs - 60mm ID, 1.5K (84lbs), 19mm (.75") collapsed length Swift helper springs with included thrust sheets

These are available in either 5x100 or 5x114.3 configuration.

Heres some of the things we have listed in our other threads on here!! The text is stolen from my other threads on here as well!!! But it's good stuff!!

http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/variant3_2007.jpg

KW offers a line of quality coilovers that are relatively affordable and offer outstanding quality and fucntion. We've had great experience with the v3's with just about every car we've ever put them on or have met that did.

Like many european dampers the v3's can be adjusted to be very foregiving on the street, while still being more then aggressive enough to be compotent at the track, hillclimb, or most entry level motorsports events. I'm sure many of you have read that about dozens of coilovers set up's out there but with these it is absolutely true!!!

Heres a bit of kw's spiel about them:

Variant 3 race technology for the road with adjustable compression and rebound damping

The new Variant 3 is state-of-the-art technology for the skilled and experienced driver. The separate and independent compression and rebound damping options allow a truly individual driving set-up. These unique systems with the 3 individually adjustable components, allows for adjustment of the compression of the damper in the low-speed range, while the highspeed set-up, so decisive for driving comfort, has been preset by our engineers

• Independently adjustable damping technology -rebound and compression damping
• "inox-line" stainless steel technology
• Individual height adjustment
• German TUEV-tested adjustment parameters
• High-quality components for long life
• Comprehensive documentation for ease of use
• Infinitely adjustable rebound damping
• 14- level adjustable compression damping
• Unique, independently functioning damping power adjustment

KW also offers more entry level Variant 1 and 2 set ups. The 1's are height only adjustable, and the 2's have height/ simultanious bound/rebound adjustment. But the V3's win for our personal favorite.

Just shoot me a pm or give me a call for pricing on these.

RCE TARMAC 2
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/Racecompengineeringtarmac2.jpg

It seems appropriate to put these right after the KW products, as RCE worked closely with them on thier TARMAC 2 coilover dampers. These are perfect for someone thats looking for the quality of a KW damper but with valving and spring rates more suited for the serious motosports enthusiast.

Heres a piece taken from RCE about them:
Racecomp Engineering Tarmac 2 coilovers are comprised of stainless steel dampers mated to linear race springs, incorporating a 2 way design with separate compression and rebound adjustments, motorsports level spring rates, composite locking perches with safety perches added, piggyback reservoirs on all front dampers, and will feature a limited lifetime warranty. Racecomp Engineering chose KW Suspension to co-brand the Tarmac 2 coilovers due to their remarkable racing heritage, consistent and impressive build quality, and phenomenal presence and support in the United States. Racecomp Engineering and KW Suspension have jointly worked on and added many differentiating options and features to the design of an already tried and proven damper. After emerging as an exceptional knowledge resource for Impreza suspension applications through years of first hand experience with nearly every suspension option available for the Subaru Impreza, Racecomp Engineering can now provide their own solution that truly caters to the core of Subaru track day and race enthusiasts.

These are great coilovers!! I plan on running them on one of our personal cars next year. Please call me or PM for pricing on these, as it tends to fluctuate due to the conversion rate.

RCE SPRINGS
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/rceblackregularguy.jpg

I'm often asked about which springs I would prefer, and these are the answer. I'm sure everyone on here is more then fairly familiar with these. I personally believe thier one of the best options there is if your running fixed perch struts and are looking for a proper spring. They have a few different variations of spring's. Just shoot me a pm, and let me know a little about what you plan on running set up wise for dampers and I'll get you headed in the right direction on some thier springs. (Uprated dampers strongly recomended)

TOKICO D-SPEC KIT
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/tokicodspeckit.jpg
A really nice kit for somene looking for a simple shock and spring set up. I was actually pretty impressed with these, there a 16 way adjustable damper with a good spring rate that matches pretty well.

http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/ohlinslogo-50.jpg

http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/ohlinssportline.jpg

Ohlins Sportline

Very Expensive, but very, very high quality. Ohlins products are trusted by teams in very high levels of motosport. Ohlins spiel:

Highly flexible damping range allows for comfortable street ride and excellent track performance. Extremely high quality, these units are designed and produced by one of the most well known and respected names in suspension technology. Includes front camber plates and rear pillowball top mounts.

25 adjustment clicks. Inverted strut design. 7kg/5kg spring rates.

http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/OHLINSflagseriesforevo.jpg
Ohlins Flag Series 2 way

Independent rebound and compression adjustability. Top located piggyback reservoir. Camber plates included. Dual height adjustable.

Ok so now we can look at brakes. One Company that we have hard great succes with is DBA (disc brakes Austrailia) They are a bit more then other brands but are completely worth the money.

They have three different series of rotors to suit different needs. standard series, 4000, 5000 series.

Will start off at the 4000 series as these are the one most commonly used by us.

http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/KPAW_DBA650X.jpg

All dba 4000/5000 series rotors benefit from this special Kangaroo Paw design. I know it looks a little strange at first but believe me folks this design works seriously well!!!:cool:

Heres another dba 4000 series without the cut away
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/dba_4000_rotor_hero.jpg

A really brilliant 1 piece brake rotor. DBA rotors are high in carbon content as well, which makes them incredibly resistant to heat, and keeps them from warping or having stuctural failures. I've personally seen these things take abuse that would have destroyed a normal rotor!! I could praise these things for days but i'll put a little piece here about them:

Features


4000 Series Rotors are DBA's mid-series enhanced-performance rotors-great for the street or the track
DBA 4000 Series Brake Rotors are custom built to stop your specific make, model and year vehicle
DBA's 4000 Rotors are the perfect brake enhancement for passenger, 4WD/SUV and motorsport vehicles
The 4000 Series Rotors boast DBA's patented "Kangaroo Paw" ventilation system for faster cooling and increased strength
The 6x6 directional wiper-slot face maintains consistent brake friction for a cleaner rotor surface
Friction gases and debris are rapidly expelled by the 6x6 wiper-slot rotor face
Thermo Stability Profiling allows the rotors to take more heat—longer disc and pad life; delayed brake fade
Thermo-Graphic heat paint markings change color at specific temperature thresholds for quick and easy rotor monitoring
DBA's jet-black paint provides excellent corrosion resistance for the 4000 Rotors
No mechanical changes or adaptors are necessary to install 4000 Series Rotors
Sold individually and side specific—carefully check the box above to choose the rotors you need
Your DBA 4000 Series Rotors are backed by a 12-month, 12,000-mile warranty
Description

Scrub the speed off your street machine or race car with the iron grip provided by Disc Brakes Australia 4000 Series Rotors. These performance discs deliver a serious upgrade to any braking system on the road or the track. Featuring DBA's 6x6 wiper-slot rotor face, the 4000 Series maintains constant friction for a cleaner disc surface and less fade.

Thermo-Graphic heat paint is marked on the edge of each 4000 Series Rotor. The colors change to signify temperature thresholds, making quick work of monitoring rotor temps. 4000 Rotors also feature DBA's Thermo Stability Profiling which handles the higher temperatures that result from spirited driving.

To keep your rotors cooler than a can of Fosters, DBA uses a "Kangaroo Paw" vent design. The vents work like an air impeller to quickly extract the hot air. It also produces a rotor that's 20% more efficient than traditionally vented discs. And best of all, DBA backs your 4000 Series Rotors with a 12-month, 12,000-mile warranty.


And now the big brother DBA 5000 series 2 piece rotors
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/dba_5000_rotor_detach_hat.jpg
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/dba_5000_rotor_front.jpg
The best way to sum it up is that, these rotors are bad ass!!! Bottom line. There's quite a signifigant jump in price from the 4000's to these but for very obvious reasons. They have all of the same features of the 4000's but are a two piece design like a proper motorsports grade rotor should be!!

DBA has great succes with these in Austrailia in touring cars, rally and other motorsport. These things will take a absolutley rediculous amount of punishment, and have a very, very high resistance to fade when coupled with proper pads. Heres another small piece about them:

Features


The 5000 Series are DBA's 2-piece, high-performance rotors for serious street and racetrack use
DBA 5000 Series Brake Rotors are custom designed for your specific make, model and year vehicle
5000 Rotors are the ultimate brake enhancement for passenger, performance and motorsport vehicles
The 5000 Series Rotors boast DBA's patented "Kangaroo Paw" ventilation system for faster cooling and colossal strength
2-piece rotors resist distortion by allowing discs to expand uniformly during heavy use
Rotors feature DBA's reusable Alumalite hat-crafted from aerospace-grade T6 aluminum
Directional slotting rapidly expels hot friction gases, debris and water
DBA's Thermo Stability Profiling equips the 5000 rotors to take extreme heat-longer disc and pad life; delayed brake fade
Thermo-Graphic heat paint markings change color at specific temperature thresholds for quick and easy rotor monitoring
No mechanical changes or adaptors are necessary to install 5000 Series Rotors
DBA 5000 Series Rotor hats are available in 4 anodized colors: Gold, Black, Red and Blue
Sold individually and side specific—carefully check the box above to choose the rotors you need
Your DBA 5000 Series Rotors are backed by a 12-month, 12,000-mile warranty
Description

Wannabes and wallabies need not apply—5000 Series Rotors are for serious drivers only. Disc Brake Australia’s top-of-the-line rotors are crafted for the rigorous demands of the Outback, the racetrack and the mean streets. Directional slotting, a 2-piece design and “Kangaroo Paw” venting make DBA 5000s the finest rotors this side of Sydney Harbor.

DBA 5000 Rotors are built with Thermo Stability Profiling to handle extreme heat—keeping your rotors stable under heavy use while extending pad and disc life. The 5000s are also marked with Thermo-Graphic paint that changes colors at specific temperature thresholds; aiding you and your pit crew in monitoring brake performance.

These 2-piece rotors feature DBA’s reusable Alumalite hats crafted from T6 aluminum. Plus, the patented Kangaroo Paw venting keeps the 5000s cool and increases the disc’s efficiency by 20% over traditional rotors. Last but not least, your DBA 5000 Series Rotors are warranted for 12-months or 12,000 miles.

I really just can't say enough about DBA's products. These are definately one of our favorites, and would absolutely recomend them to anyone considering uprating your brake system.




I almost forgot to mention that both the 4000and 5000 series rotors are also available in a XS line. There basicly the same rotor but slotted crossdrilled and have a gold colored coating. We haven't personally used these, and I dont usually recomend drilled rotors because this process tends to weaken the rotors structure. Being that there DBA's and so damn strong anyway it probably doesnt really matter much, but I dont think it's really necessary (just personal opinion). I can get them for you though it your really interested in them.

Stoptech sport stop slotted rotors. http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/slotted20disc1.jpg

These are signifigantly less then the DBA products, but are still of very decent quality. We ran these for quite some time before we antied up and got DBA. There still a very good slotted rotor, and would probably be plenty for most people. They have a nice slotted design and are specially treated with a black looking anti corosion coating. A very good product.

http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/hawk_brake_logo.jpg

[B]A perfect compliment to the DBA rotors is a set of Hawk Brake Pads. The combination of the two have actually been proven to decrease stopping distance, and drasticly improves braking consistancy.We carry both the HP and HPS lines of pads.We,ve seriously beaten the snot out of this combo, and always came away impressed.They also work pretty well with the StopTech products.[/B

Please shoot me a PM for any of this, or if theres something you wan't that you dont see, we probably have it or can get it for you!!!

We're proud to sell these products because we personally feel that that they are of very high quality,and have had nothing but great experiences with it!!!

Hope you like big pictures!!!:D


Roll center adjuster kit
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/whitelinercakit.jpg

Whiteline deigned these to raise the front roll center of the Impreza. It acomplisehs this by using longer ball joint's, and you will maintain proper bumpsteer by using the new tie rod ends. This helps car's that have been lowered slightly get their roll center back up closer to where it needs to be.

By raising the front center you will experience signifigantly increased roll resistance under hard cornering. This helps prevent your outside wheel from compressing so far under high cornering loads. Steering feedback and feel is seriously increased and quite a bit of understeer can be eliminated . You will really enjoy this modification!!!

Anti Lift Kit's (ALK)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/whitelinealks.jpg
These work by changing the "anti" geometry found in the Impreza from the factory. By mostly removing the anti effect, these help to get more of the weight onto the tire in lift and dive modes in the suspension, which in turn results in much better traction under braking and accelerating modes. Because of this increased traction, much of the understter in these car's on turn exit will be eliminated. They also give your suspension arm a poly bushing mounting point which helps control alignment change under cornering loads, and for the added icing on the cake, they give you a small increase in caster!

These are really a great part, and really help a good bit in improving the car's handling.

The bushings come in three different compounds, comfort, race, and standard. We have the standard one's stock but can get you the comfort ones, and will be stocking the race set again in about early October.

Steering rack bushings.
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/ksr202.jpg
Pretty simple idea idea here. These replace your stock rack bushing's that will flex a bit, allowing your steering rack to shift about a bit. This causes some of the vagueness found in our steering, especially in the older cars. These pretty much eliminate that slop and really help steering response. Come on, nobody likes a SLOPY RACK!!!:D

Rear diff support lock bushings
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/whitelinereardiffsupportlockbushing.jpg
These eliminate that thump you feell between fast hard shifts. It locks the front of the rear diff support, that goes to the outriggers on the body. THESE WORK!!!

http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/whitelinesway1.jpg
I have 22mm or 24mm adjustable Front sways in stock and ready to go, i have bars for either wrx or STi for all model years. I can also get you the "BIG ONE" 27mm sway.

http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/whitelineswarrear.jpg
Same goes for the rear Adjustable sway's, I have a few for every model, just shoot me a PM!!

http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/whitelineadjendlinks.jpg
Your going to want some endlinks to go with your new front swaybars so I have these spherical adjustable front endlinks. I prefer these for the front as with these and the adjustable bar you have a lot of adjusability of roll stiffness up front!!

http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/whitelineendlinkssolid.jpg
And for the rears I have these solid endlinks, I believe we still have a few spherical adjustables for the rear as well if your interested. You dont have to buy the sway bars to get these (but you should:D). I can put a kit together or sell all these individually, whichever way you prefer.

And remember, we can get you ANYTHING from Whiteline that your looking for!!

Some Nice TiC Bits



*All of the following pictures and text are from TiC's eb site*


TiC Giuyngmyo fender cowl brace ($95.00)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/ticcowlbrace1.jpg
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/ticcowlbrace2.jpg
What they do:
Tie the lower a-pillar frame member to the upper front frame member for triangulation of the junction between to two to make it stronger. There are braces there in the stock config, but those are stamped steel, and about as strong as a wet noodle. Ours are much stiffer.
What they are made of:
6061-T6 Aluminum.
Why you want them:
Stiffer is better!! Seriously, people who have installed them have been amazed at what a drastic change such a small part can make. Instead of making your car's frame act like a spring let your spring act like a spring. Afterall, that's what it's supposed to do.

Note* fenders do not need to be removed when installing these, check TiC's website for the install instructionsfor these:)
***********

*all following pictures and text courtesy of TiC's web site*

Will start of with some of there shifter stuff-


04-05 Sti Shift linkage bushings ($30.00)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/tic04-05STishiftlinkagebushings.jpg


If you have ever missed a 2-3 shift due to slop in the stick then this is your solution. The first innovative new product direct from TiC are these shift linkage bushings for the 2004 and 2005 USDM Subaru Impreza WRX STi. These bushings will help eliminate the free play of the shifter leading to an overall better feel of the stick, and making the gear selection "click" into place.
To better understand what these do you have to understand the shortcomings of the stock linkage bushings. Between the shifter linkage arm and the control arm going into the transmission is a joint. It is this joint that is causing the lateral play in the stick.
The stock joint is made of a u-joint assembly consisting of two tubes welded at right angles. In these tubes are the bushings. Inserted into these bushings are sleeve bearings, and running through the sleeve bearings are the bolts that hold the whole u-joint between the linkage arm fork and the control arm fork.
In the stock configuration there are two places in this joint that create play in the system. The first is the clearance gap between the bolt and the sleeve bearing. The second is the gap between the sleeve bearing and the bushings. It is that second point that our bushings address. Over time the soft rubber bushings compress which translates to a greater amount of slop at the end of the stick. Our bushings are made from polyurethane and are designed with much tighter tolerences than the stock bushings. The tighter tolerences ensure significantly less slop over stock, while the polyurethane compound we use is much more resistant to compression, but at the same time compliant enough to keep NVH at an acceptable level.


06+ STi shift linkage bushings ($30.00)
Attention 06 STi owners - we have run into a situation where Subaru has used the 04/05 linkage on some of the 06 STis. If your control rod/linkage core is GOLD in color then you need the 04/05 kit. If your control rod/linkage core is dark green in color you need the 06 kit.
People have been loving the 04-05 STi linkage bushings, but it turns out that Subaru changed some dimensions for the 06 model year. That means that the good old 04-05 bushings won't fit. Total bummer.
So what to do? Well, how about this - new bushings. Not just new bushings, but bushings that fit (which is always a good thing). In fact it turns out that when Subaru changed the size they made them the same across all the models - both the 6MT AND the 5MT. So I guess Subaru made up for the bummer because these will now fit all the 06 manual transmission Subarus.
So now you say, "Hey guys, that's great and all, but I'm not really familiar with them. What do they do?" Seems like a fair enough question to us, so let me answer it for you.

First, these are not the Kartboy bushings. These are entirely different (if you also need the Kartboy bushings check out some of our other bundles).
These go in the actual shifter u-joint (Some folks call it the trunnion).
It cleans up the side to side slop
You know that side to side slop that makes you mis-shift due to hanging up the stick between gates because things have gotten so sloppy? Yeah, these fix that.
5-Speed Manual trans Pivot bushing ($19.37)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/5mt_pivot_wide_big.jpg


We here at TiC are pleased to bring you this little goodie - the 5MT pivot bushings. Many many people have asked about these, and it has taken us a while to get them out, but here they are. Designed to replace the bushings and sleeve in the shift lever pivot point they help to contribute a much more solid and connected feeling to the lever. Let's be honest here - Subaru shifters are sloppy. Wiggle Waggle Floppy Sloppy. The stock soft bushings are a good reason for a large portion of the slop, and as they age it only gets worse. As far as we know these are the only ones on the market.
As for the price. They're stupidly cheap. So cheap you have no excuse to not get these. Now you might ask - why $19.37? Well, that's just because we're certifiably nuts.

Please note!!! This is the WIDE version. It will fit the shifter if you have the wide pivot point found on the stock shifter. If you have a 97-01 RS or the SPT shortshifter you want the narrow version. If in doubt please ask us!!


6 Speed manual trans pivot bushings ($19.37)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/6mt_pivot2_big.jpg
After the release of the 5MT pivot bushings the STi guys BEGGED us to make these. The 5MT version has been selling well enough for us to follow through for the 6MT guys. That's right - these are the brand new pivot bushings for the STi 6MT. They fit all years of the USDM STi, and all brands of the levers that reuse the stock bushings. Oh, and for those of you wondering what they do - it's kinda hard to describe. They just make things feel better. Maybe someone can give me some prose to put here as I'm at a loss for words.
Just for clarification these are the bushings that go in the actual lever. Not down below, but under the leatherette shift boot in the car. In other words you can change these out in just a few minutes from inside the car.


5 Speed Manual trans Linkage update ($80.00)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/tic_old_5mt_upd_1_big.jpg
http://www.turninconcepts.com/images/tic_old_5mt_upd_1_small.jpg This linkage update is for the pre-2006 Subaru 5MT that DO NOT have the external return spring. Subaru stopped using the external return spring sometime in 1998. If you are unsure please look at your linkage under the car to check. What it does: Eliminates much of the side to side slop that develops in the lever due to the stock bushings wearing out.
Why a whole linkage when the other styles we offer are just bushings: The STi, the 05+ Legacy 5MT, and ALL the 06+ Subaru 5MTs have a linkage that you can completely take apart and replace the bushings. The cars prior to this in that 1998 to 2005 timeframe have a linkage that is riveted together and cannot be serviced or upgraded.
What about the bushings - won't they just fail again: No. As part of the Updated linkage you get TiC linkage bushings. They are much stiffer and more wear resistant that the stock pieces.
Why you want it: Simple. Better definition of each gear so you're no longer rowing in pudding.

Rear Diff bushings-Comfort ($40.00)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/rear_diff_comfort_2.jpg
So you really like the idea of the rear diff mount bushings. I mean who wouldn't? You get rid of that high RPM/hard shift sonic boom. That awful bump from the trunk, and you tighten up the rear end for better response. BUT there is one problem - your car is a daily driver, and you don't want super stiff race class bushings. We're happy to let you know that we now have a solution for you. See, the thinking was simple. Take the great tooling we've got for the race class bushings, and just shoot some softer urethane into it. Thus, you now have the comfort version of the rear diff mount bushings. The shape is just like the race versions, filling those stupid voids on the stock bushings, and filling the gap on between the mount and the subframe, but with a softer, more gentle side. Just like the race versions these go for $40. Still less expensive than any others on the market.

Rear Diff Bushings-Race ($40.00)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/rear_diff_race.jpg
Are you tired of the "diff dance of distraction and deflection" when you're getting on it in your Subaru? Are you interested in better throttle response, and a more connected feeling with the car? If so, then by all means, please continue reading.
Made to fit the newer generation of Impreza chassis these mounts will also fit a number of other NEWER Subaru models. To check for fitment take a look at the pics and instructions. If your Subaru has the mount with the bushings on the ends then these will fit. (Except for the old Legacy Turbo - we know they won't fit on these).
See, the problem is this - the stock bushings are just plain wimpy. First, they are made of rubber (floppy, sloppy rubber). Second, they have a void above and below the center bore (you know, a void, like something is missing - kinda like when you're talking to someone and you realize that something in their head just ain't connected right, but you can't quite figure out what's wrong with them). This floppy, sloppy, empty headedness is fine if you're like 900 years old, and you drive like Grandma going to church in a school zone, but for anyone who likes to give their Subaru a little bit of gas on occasion they just won't do.
See, when you get on it the stock bushing flexes too much, and the void in the bushing closes quickly causing an impact. This is the source of that stupidly distracting clunk. It's also inefficient. You can also think of it this way - you're only putting out a finite amount of energy to drive the car forward. Why the heck would you want floppy, wimpy bushings soaking up some of that energy when you could be putting it to the wheels?

Tranny Crossmember bushings ($30.00)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/tictrannycrossmemberbushings.jpg
This is how TiC does tranny crossmember bushings for the MT Scoobies.

You'll notice a couple of things about our design:
1) They may look pink to the uninitiated. In reality it's cherry blossom red. The color of a warrior. Now you may still think to yourself "It's pink." Go ahead and think that, be sure to remember it when you see a cherry blossom red STi badge quickly getting smaller in front of you.
2) No cutting required to install these. The shape of these is symetrical. Realizing this we came up with an idea - make the bump on one side and a bore on the other. They fit together like the Yin and the Yang. The good and the evil. Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader (although both were whiny brats when they were younger).

What they do:
These replace the stock rubber pieces that go between each part of your tranny subframe. Also, unlike the soft rubber ones, these are made of a stiffer urethane.

Why you want them:
Think about it - you want to stiffen up the driveline so there's less play in the system. Have you ever looked at the stock bushings? If not go do so. You'll be amazed at how bubblegum soft they are. You think some play doesn't come from there? Oh, and did we mention they're cherry blossom red

Short throw gear change lever 97-01 Impreza's 5-Speed trans ($120.00)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/kartboyshortshifter97-01impreza.jpg


Overall shift throw is decreased by 40%, providing a noticable difference and a solid feel. Constructed of CNC'd and TIG welded 4130 Cr-Mo steel. Installs with simple mechanic's tools in under 30 minutes. Made in USA. Be sure to select the correct model year for the lever. All new body style WRXs are 2002+. Cars with Factory 5-speed STi Shift kit should choose the 97-01 model.

Short throw gear change lever for 02-07 Imprezas 5-speed Trans (inc WRX) also ($120.00) Note* if you have a 02-07 5-speed with STi swhift kit you will want the lever from the 07-01 model

Short throw gear change lever for 04-07
STi 6-Speed trans ($150.00)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/kartboysti6speedshortthrowshifter.jpg
Like all Kartboy levers this part is CNC machined from 4130 cro-moly and then precision jigged and TIG welded to ensure proper fitment.
This lever allows you to retain your reverse lockout which is essential for the drivability of your STi.
Throw is reduced by approximately 40% when compared to the stock lever, and the shift knob will sit about 1" shorter than stock. This makes for a comfortable reach, and quick, precise shifting.

5-speed manual trans front shifter stay bushing($30.00)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/kartboy5mtfronttransstaybushing.jpg

This is THE original Kartboy front shifter bushing. It is the gold standard by which all others are measured. If you drive a Subaru with the 5 speed tranny then you need this part. Trust me - you really do need it. This component replaces the stock shifter mount bushings in all Subaru vehicles using the 5 speed transmission. This includes Impreza RS, WRX, Outback Sport, Legacy, and Forester. While this product will not change the geometry of the shifting mechanism, it eliminates excessive play in the system for a more solid gearchange. This product requires jacking of the car and jackstands are mandatory. Can be installed in 30 min. Material is Black, 95A durometer polyurethane. Made in USA.

6-Speed trans front stay bushing ($32.00)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/kartboy6spdmanualtransfrontstaybush.jpg
This is the famous Kartboy front shifter stay bushing. EXTREMELY popular, and by far a great mod for the money. This is one of the first mods is done to just about every Subaru that's going to be modded out there.

Rear shifter stay bushing ($35.00)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/kartboyrearshifterstaybushing.jpg

Kartboy has been holding onto the design for this goodie for some time, but he's finally brought them to market. What you are looking at is a replacement bushing for the rear stay of your shifter assembly. This piece will fit all Subaru 5 speed and 6 speed manual transmissions. Here's what it does. If you look at the stock rear bushing you'll notice that it's a soft, squishy, "icky" bit of rubber in a steel cage used for mounting to the back of the transmission tunnel. Over time that rubber will break down, and allows the back of the shifter stay to move more than it should. Heck, even new ones are just unacceptably soft. The Kartboy piece is made from a much stiffer urethane, meaning it won't break down over time, and won't flex nearly as much as the stock part. What this means is a more postive snap into gear, and no more of that vague feeling in the stick when it's reached the end of the throw travel.

Rear Subframe Outrigger bushing comfort ($32.00)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/kartboyoutriggerbushingscomfort.jpg
The Kartboy Rear Subframe Outrigger Comfort bushings are designed to elminate the hard clunk you experience when shifting hard and fast in your Subaru. Often called rear diff bushings these parts actually sandwich above and below the forward outriggers for the rear subframe.
Please note, that even though these are the comfort version you may still experience a very mild increase in NVH. While it will not be anywhere near as loud as the race version we just thought you should be aware of it.

Rear Subframe Outrigger bushing Race ($32.00)
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h175/TARMACSOUL/kartboyrearoutriggerbushingrace.jpg
Please note, that there will be an increase in NVH with these, but they do help considerably with eliminating the clunk from the rear end, and tightening up the feel of the rear of the car.
Please note, this is the race stiffness so these will be create more NVH than the comfort versions

Hmmmm that's strange? Try clicking on create an account (one of the options on the front page at the top) and filling out the forms. Once you've made an account, try ordering it again.

Normally it should direct you through that upon trying to checkout when purchasing an item for your first time through the web store.

If you still have problems with that, you can send the paypal payment of $33 dollars to tarmacsoul@hotmail.com paypal account.

I will make sure the web store is working properly though for any purchases you may like to make after this one. Also the ksr202 are in stock here and ready to ship, so you should get that pretty quickly once the order has processed.:)

Thanks for your purchase!!

Sorry for the slow response, I was out of town for the long weekend.

I sure do.

Endlinks- front-$128 rear $128

Swaybars are $141 front and $141 rear for the non adjustable 22mm bars

or you could go with the adjustable 22mm bars which are $175 front and $175 rear.

So the total combined with the non adjustable bars would be $538

The total with the adjustable bars would be $606
