AFAIK - no. It's just the styling changes.

I'm pretty sure that I've got a PPP installation certificate somewhere that says that it was installed after 10,000 miles or something.

The prodrive performance pack is a subaru approved aftermarket upgrade which is normally fitted after the car has been run in, i don't think they fit them before this it costs £2.000 and is therefore an extra and not standard they do sell an sti prodrive, but the prodrive on that model stands for prodrive style not prodrive performance pack (ppp) if your car has ppp it will have a certificate to prove it. hope this helps. Dan.

My mate has a WR blue 02STi Prodrive, it doesn't come with PPP also it had lower spoiler until he changed it. His has/had gold wheels too, looks like the ones in the photo are not the originals.

Default PPP

Only changed the colour of the wheels, better IMHO !!

Advise to change to carbon wing inserts and white indicators....

Also Indigo (blue) dials....

Dunx

Blue/Black Mica bug-eyed STI type UK Prodrive Edition

PPP kept the warranty intact, got 40 bhp more from mine non-PPP

P.S. might feel a bit "heavy" after a classic, soon fixed with an exhaust and Ecutek re-map, or cheaper Mocom equivalent.
