Wow... ARC filing for Bankruptcy
^Yeah Chris, me too (plus the radiator cooling plate not shown)...haha.

Sucks, I really hope they don't close up shop completely or someone else buys them out.

And there is one less manufacturer for the brand name ****** to throw their money at.
I wonder how you say "brand name *****" in Japanese, just in case somebody here decides to open shop, they could just use the name in Japanese. Other brand name ****** need to get their fix, might as well be from the USA, though clearly marketed as JDM.

I of course think they were overpriced as well.
If they charged maybe 40-50% of what they were charging they probably could have sold at least 20x the product. Who knows, that's just a guess, but their parts are silly expensive and although they are quality, they do not offer enough of an upgrade over the competitors to warrant costing upwards of 2x-4x as much, often 10x as much.

I lucked out on the cooler. Performance Nissan in Cali happened to have one in a shipment that wasn't spoken for. They put it up for sale here. I pounced on it immediately. I'm not sure how many people have one here in the states. I know I have the only one in Texas...
VO what would you say the dimension of that Oil cooler are? I always wondered about the length and the depth of the ARC oil cooler for the Z33 as opposed to their s14 oil coolers.
(VO) awesome man, I own a few arc pieces myself but the price of the oil cooler was just to overboard for me at the time. Sweet pieces and clean Z man.
(cux) that thing is beautiful.
