Question

What is the difference between a normal UK car and a Prodrive Subaru ???????
Is the car classed different on the log-book or is it still down as a normal Subaru Impreza Turbo ????????
All info accepted with open arms !!!!!!

The car will be down in the DVLA log book as a standard turbo as the car has to be registered first before Prodrive can get their hands on it. The first thing that happens on the PPP is removing silencers and catalysts put there for Euro regs!

Perhaps one of the occasional limited editions e.g Terzo, P1 etc

Or more likely.........

Subaru sells a range of Impreza (-My00) mods through dealers. If you buy them all then that would be a 'Prodrive' Impreza.

A number of packs are available; engine upgrade,handling,interior exterior etc. External Prodrive sticker only applied when the car gets all the packs at once.

Log book probably should read as standard as mods will be done post delivery. Should be a certificate at least saying that the Prodrive Performance Pack has been fitted.

Performance Pack is all you need - an essential scooby enhancement!!

Cool

A Prodrive Scoob is one fitted with the Prodrive Performance Pack, V5 will read Subaru Impreza Turbo, the pack is fitted after registration and costs 2k for pre MY00 cars (00/99/98) and 1600 for post MY01.
You get a certificate and some nice Prodrive piping in Blue with the words Prodrive on it, to the front left of the intercooler as you look into the engine bay, also the ecu has STi on it and you have an STi cat replacement baffle box and exhaust back to a Prodrive engraved Back Box.
The certificate has the veh reg, chassis number, date of fitting and mileage when fitted.
Hope this helps

Tony
(ps should push 250bhp and 250lbs of torque on pre MY01's as MY01's have less bhp at 246 but more torque at 261lbs)

V5 just says "impreza turbo 2000 awd rb5 4 door saloon" but i have got a nice little installation certificate

Surely the only true prodrive cars are the ltd editions that they built not just std uk with a ppp?? or am i just being elitist now??
