Pink ARB (option on the RA, black is standard)

https://carandcustomgarage.com/produ...21mm-rear-arb/

I’ve never used this company though.

The other bits may be more of a challenge. I know that Tom at Sprinting Hare JDM has or can get some of these rarer pieces. You could speak with him as he may be able to help.

The ARB on that web is not suitable for a RA if the RA has the droplinks. Trying Tom, may go to plan B on the ARB and refurb if possible.

Did the RA not have 21 on front and 24 on rear?

Ah yes, you’re correct. The setup on the RA is slightly different to a standard STi

No, it just has the standard STi thickness, 19mm I think. I did some research when I bought mine. The TypeRA forum is a good place to get information on these. I think I saw you post something on there too right?

I've used them indirectly before. Bought something from a guy who imported it from them. He had good things to say about them.

Default Refurb

Got all my new Sti rear links, trailing arms and front Arm Brace. Await final costing on Front & Rear ARB 21mm along with new bushes. I finally found my parts through ICP & Car & Custom Garage. Will not be doing any changes until everything is in my possession. This Wednesday I have three outstanding problems taking ownership. The head unit was not what I was wanting need apple play and hands free. The alarm system seems the original fitting and needs modernized. The last bit was the back box had been welded it seems to make slanting and elongate the fitting to bush. It was not done right and the mid section needs stainless joints and is not 3 inch. So this will be all fixed with the guy I use for my stainless exhausts previously. It will center the back box better and drop[ it from being to close to the bumper. The car just has wee bits and pieces that need tweaked and sorted for its age and miles its done. All takes time and in no rush.
