  • 08 Subaru WRX Fog Light Delete Upgrade

    If you’re lucky enough to own a UK version of the new ‘08 WRX or Sti models, then you’ll already be familiar with the ‘acquired’ styling of the rear lights. They may be a small detail, but they make a huge difference to the look of the car.

    Subaru didn’t do themselves any favours, by making them look lop-sided with a fairly obvious fog light lens on the off-side unit. Luckily, Subaru style saviours Revolution have been poring through the OEM parts books to find a genuine part to sort out this fashion faux-pas.

    For the princely sum of just £59.99 including VAT, they will sell you an ‘all-clear’ Genuine Subaru part., complete with red bulb to make it street legal. As you might imagine, these are a fairly simple and straight-forward replacement, with take next to no time to fit.

    So what are you waiting for?, get symmetrical for the show season and give your WRX the ‘all clear’.

  • Richbrook ‘Pro Valve’ Bolt-in Wheel Valves. High Quality. Low Weight

    Funny isn’t it? Most enthusiasts will think nothing of dropping four-figure sums on a nice set of alloy wheels and tyres for their car – and then finish them off with a cheap rubber valve. Luckily, the latest aluminium masterpieces from Richbrook provide the perfectly formed answer to any automotive aesthetes looking to add the perfect finishing touch.

    Their immensely attractive Pro Valve collection is offered in either nickel plated brass or anodised aluminium in a wide range of hues to match or contrast with any car’s colour combination. As the title suggests, these new units are simply bolted into the wheel to not only provide a more secure fitment and seal, but also a subtle visual kick to any style of wheel. They’re also a worthwhile addition to any track car or club motorsport racer looking to remove the worry of rubber valve failure during those more ‘press-on’ moments.

    Sometimes, it’s the smallest details that can make the biggest difference. Priced from just £12.95 for a set of 4, this is one subtle change that can make or break a wheel and tyre package, without wilting your wallet.

  • Pipercross Competition Filter Range

    Induction maestros Pipercross have released details of their latest range of competition-spec filters.

    The hugely diverse range has been designed to offer a variety of solutions for race teams, car preparation outfits and specialist car builders. Over 40 different combinations of neck and filter diameter are available ranging from 50 – 146mm necks with a choice of 5 filter sizes from 100 to 300mm.

    Not only are the range of sizes vast, to accommodate almost every possible application, space or airflow, but also cover varying construction types including foam top, alloy caged and straight walled. All use a precision moulded rubber neck to allow for quick and easy fitment to any circular mating surface. Best of all, they’re all made entirely here in the UK.

    As well as increased flow characteristics, all Pipercross filters can actually filter down to a much finer rate than factory filters, preventing any foreign particles from harming the engine, extending its serviceable life. This same construction means that the filter can also go longer between service intervals than even leading cotton-gauze filters, before needing to be cleaned.

    Despite these impressive abilities, all Pipercross filters come with a lifetime warranty and can be easily cleaned again and again for re-use, providing decades of faithful service and paying for themselves many times over – and that’s before you start factoring in the significant performance benefits.

    Perfect as an upgrade for an existing induction kit, or for those looking for a bespoke solution. Basically, if you need a specialist filter – this range should cover it. Prices start at just £27.99 and rise to £56.99.
