you cant deny the Ralliart parts and design quality is top notch. Nothing for the Evo is get close. Sure not even in price
I'm sad to see them go away, but hey every end is a new beginning for something else.
There is always tomorrow.

Only collectors items if there is an actual demand to have them. Sadly, there has been no real demand for them.

I would really like to rummage through a Ralli Art warehouse, I could only imagine the stuff they have setting around, from the 80's on up I'm sure.

There's a ton of Ralliart gear I'd love to get my hands on, but only if I could buy it in the US and not have to worry about overseas shipping and import taxes.

Plus, I'm guessing that if they ever did sell Ralliart parts in the US, they would be significantly cheaper than just doing a direct yen-to-dollar conversion. In Japan, a base GSR has an MSRP of $38.6k USD when converted directly.. several thousand dollars more than the actual MSRP of a GSR sold in the states.

+1 on that one. i bet they would have a lot of cool stuff just lying around collecting dust just waiting for some one to find them.

They just developed a metal clutch master cylinder too, now they'll probably never release it.

The stuff isn't cheap but if you need your fix of Ralliart parts/cloths from japan here a place to get it.

I know I'm guilty buying almost anything they brand. I just bought this watch I happened upon at a random hobby shop.
