Group Buy GC8 Beatrush Rear Diff Support

RallySport Direct · 10-25-2006, 07:58 PM

Beatrush Rear Diff Support for the GC8 - This brace will "lock" in the rear diff to the Subframe and will eliminate alot of the rear end play. I know on my GC I was having a hard time finding upgraded bushings for the diff, so I found these interesting and may have to pick up a set for myself.

I am trying to see if we can get enough intrest to put together a Group Buy.

Option #1 - Price will be 135.00 plus shipping if you do not want to participate in the group buy.

Option #2 - If we can get atleast 10 people togehter for a group buy the price will drop to 125.00

I know the discount for the group buy is not huge, but money is money, so what do you guys think? Would you want to wait to do a group buy or should we just bring them in seperatly??

We will play this by ear and see how it goes!

Please PM me if you would like to be on the group buy list.

Group Buy:
1. Kostamojen Paid!!
2. Patrick Olsen Paid!
3. 99WRXEJ20 Paid!!
4. Hurley 2.5 WRS (need payment)
5. DiscoWagon (Paid!!)
6. snowman4us Paid!
7. ImprezaRSX Paid!
8. Jaxx Paid!
9. Wedge Paid!!
10. AmdEmAll Paid!
11 - RickatRallySport- Ninja Add

Thanks and please let me know if there are any questions.

I Like It Sideways · 10-27-2006, 04:32 PM

so from my understanding this brace will add to the longevity of the rear differential and halfshafts/bushings? Correct me if im wrong...
What about handling? Any difference?

RallySport Direct · 10-27-2006, 08:06 PM

This brace looks like it will Lock your rear diff into the rear subframe of the car, remember your rear subframe is still attached to the Chassis by crappy bushings as well, but this will make the Diff-to-subframe a solid peice.

Im not sure how it would effect handeling, it could only be in a positive way, but im just not sure how noticeable it will be.

One thing to remember is that, I do not think that anyone has brought these to the States yet, so my information on them is going to be limited, but I will do my best to answer all questions.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks
Rick

99WRXEJ20 · 10-29-2006, 07:55 PM

bump, or else im buying one on my own.

sheepdog · 10-30-2006, 12:45 PM

Does anyone know if these will work on an 05 wrx subframe and rear diff? I wonder whether I'd need one for the gc8 or the GD. Probably GD.

The GD rear is a different setup, with a separate, removeable dogbone that has the bushings in it - pretty easy to swap out the bushings, because you can remove the dogbone in just a few minutes. The GC setup has the bushings in the main rear subframe, which makes it a HUGE project to get the bushings out.

So the answer is NO, this won't work on your car, and you don't need it. There are bushing kits out there for your car already.

This thing will be awsome.
Will make power transfer allot smoother under hard cornering load, with throttle imput.

showoval · 10-30-2006, 05:09 PM

I'm interested, how long do I have to make up my mind?

RallySport Direct · 10-30-2006, 05:10 PM

sheepdog - I would doubt it, but you can use most aftermarket diff Bushings. The reason we would import these from Japan, is the GC8 guys have a very limited option for rear diff bushings/braces.

Snowman4us - You are on the list!!

Let me know if you have any other questions
Thanks
Rick

RallySport Direct · 10-30-2006, 05:59 PM

showoval - It is hard to say, it depends on how long it takes to get 10 people interested.

PM me if you have any questions
Thanks

sheepdog · 10-30-2006, 07:29 PM

mmm, sweet. Thanks!

ImprezaRSX · 10-30-2006, 08:17 PM

I want one.
I've been trying to get ahold of a wrx rear crossmember, but nobody has one for sale. So **** it. I'll take one too.

I thought speed pro had bushings for our rear diffs, but I've searched for three hours and can't find them.

I was going to make one of these myself out of desperation. My bushings are sagging and the bolt is practically laying on the subframe. My cusco rear LSD has ensured the bushings haven't survived. I just want to get rid of the chattering and bucking at slow speeds.

recnelis · 10-30-2006, 10:24 PM

That's a nice piece of hardware. Too bad it's not ST legal for autocross, oh well.

RallySport Direct · 10-31-2006, 01:10 PM

ImprezaRSX - Im going to add you to the list, let me know if you have any questions!

Thanks
