I just ordered some prosport gauges and can't wait to stick them in!! Just need to get a gauge bezel from RR to put them in... wish they were open on weekends

steve · 01-17-2009, 01:11 PM

I agree biker.
Most of my favorite shops are closed on the weekends.

Here's one of my latest "style" mods.
ARC Ti cover, along with a Crucial wrinkle red rad diverter plate.

It's come a long way since the early days...

Datum1 Rear Tow Hook:

alvinli217 · 01-17-2009, 08:16 PM

^nice mod Ryan, i want to try to tow u on that thing for real LOL

is it going to snap off as in for Bling Bling or does it really works?

alcoolaid · 01-17-2009, 08:20 PM

^Obviously it works. Just look how beefy it is... and the hardware. Might get some weight savings over the stock setup.

semaj · 01-18-2009, 12:23 AM

007WRX, I could have used one of those when I got stuck in 3' of snow at Cypress and had to get pulled out by a 4x4 Ram

It bolts through the previous tow hook.

truenosan · 01-18-2009, 08:54 PM

How much was that towhook? I've been thinking of getting a set since I would need em soon

JccL · 01-19-2009, 01:12 AM

finally wingless! I now have an impreza with alternative bling on the trunk.

The wing is up for sale in the vic private classifieds.

flame away, say what you think, if it's offensive pm me, lol i want feedback.

Personally i think it looks like one of those dudes with piercings and shiny jewelery.

That looks like it's for a Honda and mounts to the tow loop in the center of the bottom of the trunk. How does it mount onto the Subys?? To the exsisting tow hooks on the right or left? And just extends it?

Have any DYI pictures of the install?

steve · 01-18-2009, 12:26 PM

Wow, the best source for ARC.
That's a tough one, because the stuff is hard to find, and expensive when you do.

Honestly, keep your eyes open in the classifieds for ARC stuff. Pricing is usually half of what it retails for, plus the bits are mostly metal, so one can refinish them if necessary.

If you can justify the cost of new, Fizz in New York has a ton of ARC stuff in stock, from the FMIC kit to engine dressup parts. Gruppe-S also has ARC, but I would rather drive stock than buy from those goofs again.

bikergreen · 01-18-2009, 12:39 PM

Ya I did a little looking and all I came up with was its pricey new... just thought maybe I had missed something - Guess not! expensive engine dress up is very far down the list
