Happy 4th of July! I just got more scoops and wings in stock and have put them on the site Bakemono.net for purchase. #Subaru #impreza #sti #gc8 by @bakemono

S6 WRC front crossmember. I built the model off a scan, had all the sheet metal bits laser cut, machined some of it in my lathe and mill, did some forming on the press with some 3d printed dies I designed, cut all the tubing with some 3d “trim guides”, and had @dirtypawsmotorsports weld it up for me. He had an original s6 front subframe to make the welding jig from. Biggest pain in the ass was machining the cup main mounting bits. All the tubing is docol, sheet metal is Strenx, with a little 4130 thrown in there for the smaller machined bits. All in all, I’m pleased with it, and have 90% of what I need to make 4 more.

Nothing “new” but these are the non-rendered version of what I posted the other day. This is the view I stare at during modeling….minus the carbon texture which I add at the end. Anyway, this is the S6 heater assembly. Air comes in from the cowl, through the blower motor to the heater box where it passes through a small radiator/heater core, and out through a vent along the glass in the center and at the driver side vent by the glass. There’s a valve that controls the coolant flow to the radiator. If you pull the knob on the dash, the hot water flows through the radiator and gives you hot air. Otherwise there is a bypass on the engine side that allows coolant to keep flowing while the valve is closed. #wrc #subaru #impreza #rallycar #3dmodel by @bakemono

I haven’t really been posting too much. Much of what I have been doing is on the design front, and using those designs to verify fitment, create tooling, etc etc. The heater box I’ve already made but the original tooling bad burned up in the fire so I took it as an opportunity to tighten up fitment and such. I’ll be posting much more frequently as designs turn into parts. #bakemono #wrx #wrc #subaru #prodrive by @bakemono

Finally got the @bakemono wing installed. Transmission swap is almost complete. When that’s done soon she’ll be getting some new paint.

It’s not often you get to work on rad projects like this. @bakemono reached out about a year ago to recreate some S5/6 WRC parts, and we are finally moving forward on the project. First up, the rear trailing arm. Pumped with how these turned out. Next up…you’ll just have to wait and see. #subaru #impreza #wrc #s5 #s6 by @bakemono

Took my son to beach practice in the GRC and took this pic. Not a super beautiful day but i thought it was a cool pic. #bakemono #grc #toyota #corolla #grcorolla #gazoo #gazooracing #trd #jdm #volk #ze40 #rays #rayswheels #varis #widebody #turbo #carstagram #carsofinstagram #cars #beach #redondobeach by @bakemono

Got to spend some time with this 1999 WRC car and note some of the deltas from the 97-98 WRC cars. I scanned some of the obvious deltas. Stay tuned I guess. There’s some fun updates coming. #bakemono #wrc #s5 #prodrive #impreza #Subaru #subie #subienation #subiegang #subieflow #gc8 #wrx #sti #awd #wrxsti #turbo #widebody #rallycar #racecar #becauseracecar #carstagram #carsofinsta #carsofinstagram #subaruwrx #スバル　#インプレッサ by @bakemono

I did a bit of an exercise comparing the WRC and 22B front and rear fenders. There are the obvious differences that can be seen from afar and from pictures like the arch differences, fuel lid, and side skirt area, but a few that are less obvious. Anyway, enjoy. I probably should have made a YouTube video highlighting the differences. Maybe later. #bakemono #wrc #22b #subie #subaru #wrxsti #subiegang #widebody #subielove #impreza #sti #wrx #turbo #22b #rally #rallycar #gc8 #subieflow #subienation #subaruwrx #subaruwrxsti #jdm #3dmodel #3dscan #3dscanning by @bakemono
