ARC Japan, has announced bankruptcy today.... :(
It saddens me personally, they've always been one of my favorites for quality, not price though! lol, anyways, made a little post/tribute about it: http://tinyurl.com/45du5ut

share your fondest memories with of your ARC products....

my ARC intercooler.... the way it channels air so efficiently through the fins, and each tube across is made into a point! to slice through the air and chill the charged air, so that I, may enjoy just a little more power from my car.

Thank you ARC, for being that little extra bit of Awesome in my life.

I heard the news earlier. Sucks.

The only ARC item I have is a second hand intake setup for my miata.

So why doesn't the Japanese government just bail them out? That was quite the success here in America, aren't they taking notes??? :rolleyes:

Japan's government and large conglomerates are practically one entity anyway.
