Subaru Impreza 2.5RS (1998-2001)
Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS (1998-2001), SCCA G Stock
The Subaru Impreza can be made into a somewhat competetive SCCA G Stock autocrosser. Its tough for it to hang with the MINI Cooper S and Toyota Celica, but the modifications listed below will surely help.
Tires:
The Kumho Ecsta V710 race tire in size 225/50-16 seems to be the hot G Stock setup. You will get a little rubbing on the fender lip in the rear and the strut in front, but its very minimal. If that bothers you, go with a narrower size.
Wheels:
You really can't go wrong with the factory Impreza 2.5RS RS wheels. These wheels are strong and relatively light for a factory wheel. Plus you can find them on the used market pretty easily.
Suspension:
The
KYB AGX Adjustable Struts
are definitely the way to go. They offer 4 way adjustability and are pretty affordable. We'd also recommend doing a good front/rear autocross alignment.
Interior:
The Impreza's factory seats are relatively supportive, but a must upgrade would be a Schroth Rallye 4 Harness Belt. These will make a HUGE difference over the factory seat belts.
Engine/Transmission:
Supertrapp S/C Elite Exhaust
K&N Filtercharger
Mobil 1 5w30 Motor Oil
Red Line Heavy Shockproof Gear Oil
Brakes:
The stock pads are fine on this car, but a better choice would be a set of Carbotech Bobcat Brake Pads
