SACC2445 - Impreza WR by Prodrive (4 door)

SACC2446 - Impreza WR by Prodrive (5 door)

Note: Prices are quoted in addition to the cost of the base car.
The aim is to present the "Impreza WR by Prodrive" as a model in it’s own right, although Type
Approval laws dictate that the additional items have to be fitted subsequent to purchase of a
registered car.
The advantages of presenting the package as a discrete model in the range include:
- Clearer identity of the car
- Recognition of the engineering behind the packages (not just bolt-on extras)
- Higher resale values
- Value for money

Page 2.1
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
• This enhancement is offered only as a complete package. The constituent parts are not available
separately, as they will only show their full benefits when used together.
• The transportation of the car to and from Prodrive is the responsibility of the dealer.
• Vehicles supplied to Prodrive MUST BY LAW be registered and taxed with number plates fitted. In
addition, the car should have a full tank of Super Unleaded fuel (98 RON) and, for new cars, a
completed P.D.I. in order that the original warranty remains valid.
• Following installation of the Performance Package, cars can be serviced in the normal manner. All
service parts are standard Subaru.
• To obtain maximum benefit from the package, we recommend continued use of Super Unleaded
(98 RON) fuel. Vehicles will run safely using normal 95 RON Premium Unleaded, but may not
deliver their full potential due to the lower quality of this fuel. Should the customer choose to use
95 RON Premium Unleaded on a long-term basis, the ECU memory should be cleared by using the
Select Monitor.
• The Performance Packages for pre-99MY and pre-97MY cars are still available. Conditions and
procedures are as for the new package, but pre-97MY cars must run ONLY on Super Unleaded (98
RON) fuel following conversion. Pre-98MY cars must be fitted with 16" or 17" wheels to provide an
adequate safety margin.
• Customers should be advised that most car insurers require vehicle owners to inform them of any
changes to vehicle specification. Failure to do this may invalidate their policy.

DEVELOPMENT NOTES:
The performance curves reproduced overleaf were derived during testing at the Motor Industry
proving ground at MIRA, using their mile straight to accurately reproduce the dynamic environment
that customers’ cars will operate in but under controlled, repeatable conditions.
The series of tests was devised and performed with a view towards consistency. The testing was done
with minimum electrical drain and all windows wound up, and comprised:-
• Coast down test from 110mph to 10mph to calculate the aerodynamic drag and rolling resistance
• Wide Open Throttle (WOT) runs in each gear, from 1500rpm to the rev limiter (except 5th gear)
• In-gear performance
• Maximum speed
• Standing start runs

The data was then processed to deduce the power and torque curves shown overleaf.

Driving Enhancement Package
KEY FEATURES

• Prodrive / Eibach uprated

suspension kit with
Bilstein dampers and
Eibach springs
• 17” premium alloy wheels
in gold or silver with
Pirelli P-Zero tyres
• Quickshift gearchange
• Includes recommended
fitting time of 6 hours by
Prodrive

The Impreza Driving Enhancement Package combines a variety of enhancements to improve traction, feedback
and control, especially suited to the more sporting driver.

Premium quality 17” alloy wheels are matched to Pirelli P-Zero tyres, which have shown in both track and road testing to
offer high levels of grip and predictability combined with an even wear rate, whilst not compromising ride comfort. Wheel
offsets have been carefully selected to maximise the car’s famous handling characteristics without introducing undesirable
traits such as steering kickback, torque steer and tramlining.

The wheels and tyres are matched to upgraded suspension comprising Bilstein dampers and Eibach springs manufactured to
Prodrive specifications, tailored specifically for typical UK driving conditions. These increase the dynamic ability of the
vehicle without seriously affecting comfort levels; bump absorption remains effective whilst roll and pitch resistance is
increased, offering flatter cornering and less float. A tightening of the geometry tolerances further enhances handling
balance and steering feel.

Finally, shift quality is improved through the fitment of a quickshift mechanism which reduces the lever throw without
suffering a dramatic increase in weight.

All of the components of the Driving Enhancement Package are available for sale individually, but the true benefits of the
upgrade will only be fully realised when all are allowed to work in conjunction with each other.

The Impreza Interior Package offers an ideal upgrade to those drivers wishing to enhance the appeal of the
interior of their car while benefitting from a real improvement in comfort and support.

The superbly engineered Recaro ‘Sport’ front seats offer unrivalled location during spirited driving, yet are one of only a
handful of seat designs worlwide to be awarded prestigious approval by the Federation of German Spinal Health Institutes
and the Association for Healthier Backs - Better Living.

Featuring pronounced shoulder support and backrest side bolsters, steplessly adjustable recline, airmatic lumbar support,
electrical seat height and tilt adjustment (with a greater range than the OE seat) and an extendable seat cushion, these
seats will leave any driver feeling refreshed after a long journey.

The four door trims and the rear seats are then retrimmed in matching black Artista fabric, blending them seamlessly with
the new front seats and lifting the ambience of the whole cabin.

A choice of carbon-effect or silver aluminium gearknob is fitted and the whole package finished off with tailored, Prodrive
monogrammed, luxury carpet mats.

The Impreza Exterior Package extends the visual appeal of the car through a carefully considered blend of
replacement and modified parts.

The Prodrive WRC replica rear spoiler (4-door cars only) is styled to mimic the wing fitted to the Impreza World Rally Cars,
but has dimensions to suit the narrower body of the road car. An integral high-level brake light is also fitted.

Five-door cars benefit from a more pronounced pair of spoilers fitted to the rear tailgate in place of the original units.

The spoiler(s), door mirrors and sill extensions are all then painted to match the bodywork of the car, while the front
bumper inserts are painted black.

The package is completed by the fitment of rally-derived, 120W high intensity performance driving lights in place of the
standard fog lamps, to improve night-time driving safety. Protective lamp covers are also provided.

The improved performance is produced through a carefully developed combination of co-ordinated exhaust and engine
management modifications, with uprated brake pads fitted to maintain safe braking performance. For similar safety
reasons, this package will not be fitted to vehicles with original wheels and tyres.

Wheels & Tyres
While there are many wheel and tyre options on the market, there are very few that suit the
uncompromising demands of the Impreza Turbo.
Choosing wheels of the incorrect offset will lead to increased steering kickback, torque steer and
tramlining. Using tyres of an alternate size or type may give the same effects allied to a loss of ride
comfort.
These combinations have been selected to offer the best performance and quality for this unique car.

17” Prodrive 7
• Gold, Anthracite or Silver finish
• Uses original wheel nuts
• Includes specialist tyre fitting where applicable

When fitted with Pirelli P-Zero 205/45 ZR17 tyres, these 17” wheels offer
improved handling, traction and grip in the wet and dry and benefit
steering response and weighting.
There is no significant loss of ride comfort.

In response to customer demand, the WR Sport range now includes a replacement exhaust rear
silencer which can be fitted without the need to purchase a full Performance Package.
The constituent parts of the Performance Package are designed to work in conjunction with each other and,
for this reason, are not available individually. However, this exhaust silencer has been designed to offer an
enhancement option to customers who do not require the full performance benefits of the Package.

Exhaust Rear Silencer

• Enhances characteristic engine note
• Free-flowing design
• Lifetime guarantee against faulty materials or workmanship
• Recommended fitting time: ½ hour

A direct replacement part for the original rear silencer with “E” mark for
all Turbo models. A silencer is also available to fit 1999MY & 2000MY
normally aspirated Sport and GL model Imprezas.
Although the silencers have been tested to confirm their free-flowing
properties (which should provide marginal performance benefits), power
increase figures should not be quoted due to the inherent inaccuracies in
rolling road testing equipment.

Recaro is acknowledged world-wide as a master in the art of good seating, providing comfort with
orthopeadically correct posture and supreme location during cornering.

Prodrive has selected Recaro’s “Sport” seats as an ideal upgrade to the original Impreza front seats. They offer unrivalled
location during spirited driving, yet are one of only a handful of designs worlwide to be awarded prestigious approval by
the Federation of German Spinal Health Institutes and the Association for Healthier Backs - Better Living.

Featuring pronounced shoulder support and backrest side bolsters, steplessly adjustable recline, airmatic lumbar support,
electrical seat height and tilt adjustment (with a greater range than the OE seat) and an extendable seat cushion, these
seats will leave any driver feeling refreshed after a long journey.

They have been specified in materials which match the existing interior of the Impreza Turbo, so avoiding the cost of an
expensive re-trim. Prodrive and Recaro embroidery features prominently.

The price includes a pair of seats, subframes, all electrical connections and comprehensive fitting instructions.

For the driver who wants the ultimate in stopping power, Prodrive has engineered a comprehensive braking
system upgrade tailored for the high performance of the Impreza Turbo.
This system has undergone extensive testing under the most demanding conditions at tracks and proving grounds around
the country to ensure consistently strong braking without suffering the traditional problems of cold performance normally
associated with these systems.
Improved brake pedal feel is an added appeal of this option.
The 4-pot front calipers, unique to Prodrive, are machined from lightweight aluminium to minimise unsprung weight and
aid handling.
These are mated to 330mm discs featuring spiral venting to offer greater cooling
capacity and a unique Prodrive groove pattern to continually clean the pad
surface and resist glazing.
The pad material is chosen to complement the characteristics of the discs,
offering much greater stopping power and fade resistance without compromising
cold braking performance.
To retain braking balance, this kit should ideally be fitted together with the rear
pad upgrade (as detailed on previous page).

Wheels & Tyres
Impreza owners have, for some time, been requesting 18” wheel options for their cars. Prodrive has
worked with OZ and Pirelli to produce a unique sized, fully approved upgrade option for P1 owners.
Fitment of non-approved 18” wheels will cause fouling of the rear wheelarches under heavy loads or
cornering, over-sensitive steering and excessive tramlining. Using tyres of an alternate size or type
may give the same effects allied to a loss of ride comfort.
The wheel matches the design of the original wheel, with an identical anthracite finish, to reflect the
exclusivity of the Impreza P1.

18” OZ P-WRC1 wheel

• Impreza P1 fitment only
• Anthracite finish
• Supplied with stone deflector kit
• Includes specialist tyre fitting
As fitted with Pirelli P-Zero 225/35 ZR18 tyres, these wheels will sharpen
the handling, traction and grip in the wet and dry and significantly
benefit steering response and weighting.
Due to improvements in tyre technology to manufacture this low profile,
there is no significant loss of ride comfort.
Supplied with stone deflector kit and comprehensive fitting instructions.
Uses original wheel nuts.

To match the awesome performance of the Impreza P1, Prodrive now offers its brake upgrade kit for
owners wanting better pedal feel, high speed performance and fade resistance.
Developed in partnership with Alcon, sponsor and supplier to the Subaru World Rally Team, this kit draws on
experience gained in the heat of competition. The brake disc material, construction and pad compound are
the same as those used on the Impreza World Rally Cars.
Visually, the brakes also complement the open design of the P1 wheels to enhance the performance credentials
of this very special car.

Seating Package - P1
KEY FEATURES

• Prodrive Recaro ‘Sport’

front seats in blue fabric
and grey Alcantara
• Materials match existing
interior trim
• Fully adjustable for
ultimate comfort and
support

Recaro is acknowledged world-wide as a master in the art of good seating, providing comfort with
orthopeadically correct posture and supreme location during cornering.

Prodrive has selected Recaro’s “Sport” seats as an ideal upgrade to the original P1 front seats. They offer unrivalled
location during spirited driving, yet are one of only a handful of designs worlwide to be awarded prestigious approval by
the Federation of German Spinal Health Institutes and the Association for Healthier Backs - Better Living.

Featuring pronounced shoulder support and backrest side bolsters, steplessly adjustable recline, airmatic lumbar support,
electrical seat height and tilt adjustment (with a greater range than the OE seat) and an extendable seat cushion, these
seats will leave any driver feeling refreshed after a long journey.

They have been specified in materials which match the existing interior of the P1, so avoiding the cost of an expensive re-
trim. Prodrive and Recaro embroidery features prominently.

The price includes a pair of seats, subframes and all electrical connections.

Wheels & Tyres
The suspension and brake configuration of the Forester dictate different wheel requirements to the
Impreza.
Choosing wheels of the incorrect offset will lead to increased steering kickback, torque steer and
tramlining. Using tyres of an alternate size or type may give the same effects allied to a loss of ride
comfort.
This Speedline / Pirelli combination has been selected to offer the best performance and quality,
while the special paint finish complements this unique car.

17” Speedline Supertourismo wheel

• Forester fitment only
• Anthracite finish
• Supplied with wheel nuts (uses original locking nuts)
• Includes specialist tyre fitting where applicable

When fitted with Pirelli P-Zero 215/50 ZR17 tyres, these 17” wheels offer
improved handling, traction and grip in the wet and dry and benefit
steering response and weighting.
There is no significant loss of ride comfort.
Due to a lower wheel offset than the Impreza, these wheels will work
with the Subaru 4-pot brake upgrade.

Wheels & Tyres
The choice of alloy wheels in the current aftermarket is bewildering, but few offer the specific size
and unusual offset to suit the Legacy without upsetting the car’s handling characteristics.
Choosing wheels of the incorrect offset will lead to increased steering kickback, torque steer and
tramlining. A different size or type of tyre may give the same effects allied to a loss of ride comfort.
This Speedline / Pirelli combination has been selected to offer the best performance and quality.

Performance
Exhaust Rear Silencer
• Enhances characteristic exhaust note
• Free flowing design
• Lifetime guarantee against faulty materials or workmanship
A direct replacement part for the original rear silencer giving a small
improvement in performance along with a more sporting exhaust note.
Although the silencers have been tested to confirm their free-flowing
properties (which should provide marginal performance benefits), power
increase figures should not be quoted due to the inherent inaccuracies in
rolling road testing equipment.
