Could be wrong, but I suspect that's a flexible pipe to the intake?

Just confirming if those rear camber and toe arms for EVO 1-3 are correct for our cars. Talking to Darron (Just Jap) to see if he can organize some Hard Race arms for us since they are kind of hard to find around ebay.

Already ordered them from that link, cost me $100 more than what Rob paid for his Hard Race arms. :)
But am just grabbing some details in case Just Jap can start stocking these arms for others to buy, could come handy for other members. :)

Edit:
Just got an email from Hard Race. They can source the arms directly from them for $224 landed.

Ooh, that's tempting. Wait, is that just the camber or the toe arms as well?

Both together.
Here's the break up:
$90 Camber arm with hardened rubber 6186: HARDEN RUBBER
$90 Toe arm with hardened rubber 6185: HARDEN RUBBER
$44 Postage.

Just rechecked, prices are in US$ not AU$.

If we have an interest I can start a Group buy and try get the prices down bit more. I can always cancel my order with Megan and join the group buy. Also, multi-buy 'might' save us a bit on postage.

Just watch that $1000 import limit or you might get hit up for import duty and GST.

Yep, good reminder. Will do 4 sets each order. Can either divide the orders or have the different sets land up in different locations.

Oh god, I appreciate your enthusiasm Sidds, but just order your own set :lol:

How much could you possibly save? 10 bucks a person? That's IF you can find 10 buyers? I spill that much in the pub of a night :lol:

Oh & btw, these things are a pain in ass to align without taking your wheels off to do it. My tyre guy wasn't impressed!

Two long 26mm spanners from underneath, bit tricky but not impossible, I did it on stands multiple times, he has a hoist.

Needless to say, after that wheel alignment, I was the proud owner of 2 long 26mm ring spanners :lol:
