When Bruce isn't surfing through the summer or riding motorcycles on Sundays, he can be found rallying his new Subaru Impreza GRC that we just finished building. GRC? Bruce is over 40 now and likes to race comfortable. Since Bruce and his wife Pat drive the car to and from rallies ( from their home in Santa Barbara to Laughlin Nevada, Prescott Arizona, Palmdale California and more)...he decided to keep the A/C, stereo and major interior panels. The DMS suspension is stout enough for all out rallying but isn't too bad on a long drive. The Cobra Imola 2 seats don't allow for much squirming around, but are comfortable enough that you don't need to.
You all know we specialize hard core in the Mitsubishi Eclipse. Scooby guys don't get your hopes up, Bruce is an old friend and asked us to build him a car and we did. RRE did all the rally and race modifications to this Impreza, we don't (as of yet) do performance mods to Subarus. As long as we have more busted Eclipses than we can fix and the phone keeps ringing off the hook for Eclipse parts, we'll stick with them. Bruce got the majority of his Subaru upgrade and factory parts from Mike Shields @ SPD USA. We suggest contacting him directly for any Subaru questions. Bruce also got some nice Subaru specific rally parts from Primitive Racing. We sell the universal light pod and the rally and safety equipment. For rally lighting check out Auto Bulb Depot. Shiv from SCC Magazine supplied and set up the TEC-2.
