Seaside (RUSTSIDE)
Prior to 2022, Seaside were considered a close friend to R.U.S.T as the leaders of Seaside at that time, Benji Ramos and Ash Ketchup, are close friends of Raymond's. However, the two gangs had a fallout after Raymond accepted a hit placed on JJ, who is a main member of Seaside, by Speedy. Their conflict eventually turned into war.For more information about what had happened during the conflict and war, read First R.U.S.T & Seaside conflict and First R.U.S.T vs Seaside war in Major Events.After the war, it was clear that the two gangs no longer liked each other but chose to tolerate one another for business reasons and because of the friendship between the leaders of both gangs.It was not until the "Meth Lab Event" on February 4, 2023, that their relationship finally took a big positive turn. During the event, R.U.S.T were backstabbed by their ally, The Mandem, and Seaside were betrayed by Ballas. Both gangs when to war with their "supposed ally", where they found solace in their situation and they helped and bonded with each other during the bad time.Fast forward to today, Seaside is R.U.S.T's most trusted ally. Members from both gangs often hang out with each other, sharing teas and doing jobs together. Many members of Seaside can also be found chilling with R.U.S.T at their Scrapyard from time to time, including high-profile members, ie. Benji and JJ.
== Former Alliances ==
Vagos + VATO Alliance
Vagos, also known as Eastside Vagos, has close ties with the Cleanbois members especially between Speedy, the el Jefe of the Vagos and Lang. Since R.U.S.T is an unofficial subsidiary of the Cleanbois, they did some favor for Speedy with no question asked and instantly get the recognition and trust from him. Speedy also one of the main supplier of guns and ammo for Cleanbois and now for R.U.S.T too. Speedy does not hesitate to say that they will lend hand to help R.U.S.T during war, constantly supplying weapons when needed.After the events that happened during the R.U.S.T. & Vagos conflict, RUST had lost the respect of Vagos and the alliance between them was ended.VATO Alliance:The Alliance is originally founded by Speedy, El Jefe of Eastside Vagos and Sergio, El Jefe of Marabunta Grande on March 30th, 2022. Eventually Speedy expanded the alliance with addition of Gulag Gang, BSK, Marabunta Grande, and R.U.S.T. UPDATE - VATO alliance unfortunately ended after several conflicts happened within its members.
The Mandem
W.I.P.
Cleanbois
R.U.S.T.'s main founder and leader, Raymond Romanov is a part of the Cleanbois (CB) femly. Some R.U.S.T. members also have close ties to CB, such as La Flare Davis who is currently Raymond's adopted son and a good friend with both Yuno (his mentor in hacking) and Tony. Tony have known Wren before R.U.S.T and have done multiple bank heists together with Wren as a getaway driver, Tony was also the one who introduced Wren to Raymond. Majority of the R.U.S.T. members are Redline racing crew members. Derek and Harry have done car boosting jobs together and he is also apparently Mickey’s BFF. Most of CB members acknowledge the existence of RUST and seems pretty neutral about it. The core CB members have been brought to RUST's warehouse by Raymond as a sign of trust. Lang himself satisfied with their dedication to grind materials for CB thus he gave permission to Ray to give Manor guest key to all R.U.S.T members. Because of this connection, some of the materials from the heists they do end up with CB.
After fallout with Cerberus which initially stemmed from R.U.S.T. members robbing gold-panners, Raymond had to cut ties with few members of Cleanbois and its association when they choose to side with Lang Buddha. R.U.S.T. is currently a standalone gang after being known to be indirectly connected with the Cleanbois through Raymond before the conflict.
