Default (NA8) Full ARC Intake setup -- Rare pieces!

ARC Magic Chamber -- We've all seen plenty of these for sale, but in 4 years, I've never seen another NEW, UNUSED one. Still in original plastic. Absolutely no dents or scratches. Includes original green silicone couplers and clamps and I'll throw in the blue ones I was going to use. Also some bracket that it came with... Asking price may seem a little steep, but it's NEW!
SOLD

ARC Air Box -- These are even more rare than the chambers, and what sets this apart is that it's already modded for an MAF delete, with a correct aluminum pipe welded to the box. The welds are not pretty but they are strong and could be cleaned up. Of course, if you don't want to delete your MAF, the pipe is easy enough to cut off, but otherwise, this saves you some effort. There is also a hole (currently plugged) which I assume was meant for a IAT. I cleaned it up a bit, but it could use a bit more polishing. Personally, I would just have it powder coated. No dents! It is missing 1 of the 3 brackets that secures it to the car. It will work without it, or one could be fabricated pretty easily. I also bought all-new stainless hardware that I'll include.
$300 $270 $240 OBO----SHIPPED!

ARC Air Filter -- After hours of research and trial-and-error, I am convinced there is no third-party replacement for the ARC filter. Nothing I could find fits quite right. These are reusable and go for $140 on eBay when you can find them. Brand new.
SOLD

ARC Plate -- Not totally sure if this is authentic, but I think it is--the Ingrish is spot on! I was going to cut the heads off some bolts and stick it on the air box with some tape. Brand new. Etched aluminum about the size of a business card. I think I paid $35.
SOLD

Nice to finally have a look inside the air box. I thought it would have some sort of funnel inside.

Yeah the inside definitely has not been modded in any way--they are all like that. Essentially the same design on inside as the stock box. Honestly the main benefits of the box, for my money, are the deeper sound due to to the unrestricted access to the filter, and also the fact that it aligns the chamber a little differently, thus saving it from getting dented to all hell by the hood. Also, it obviously looks cool.

Thanks!

I think they're fair prices for what they are, how much I paid and how much this stuff usually goes for. But I will entertain offers, especially for the whole lot. And as I said, these prices include shipping!

That is an insane amount of money for something that is purely aesthetic.

So you sold the air filter, that only fits the ARC air box, separate from the air box that only takes ARC filters?

I did. Member had one already and I was looking to move some of this.

However those filters are the 1 part that are readily obtainable. ARC is actually back in business, with a limited inventory. But the filters they are making. They can be had on US eBay even. Type D I believe, but I can double check.

Bump for the airbox. I just saw one of these go for more on YJ, before shipping to US.

Lowered again to $200. And if it's a deal breaker for anyone, I will cut off the MAF replacement tube and clean it up and make it look like it was never there---just thought someone would find it useful.
