Absolutely nothing, plus 7zip can be faster with better compression.
Well, apparently it can do some recovery of corrupted .rar, but who uses that format anyway

    I've used .rar to backup some data to an unpowered drives, some time ago. You can reserve additional space for the checksums while compressing, so you won't be able to recover just regular .rar files.
