Subaru made its mark with their Impreza WRX model by entering it into the World Rally Championship (WRC) back in 1990. Later, in 1992, their triumphant legacy was followed by a more compact version, produced after two years of testing technology. Commonly referred to as a sports sedan, the Impreza became widely popular among civilians as a street car that brought them the power of a WRC contender.
Finally, in August 2000, the second generation of Impreza models brought the Impreza WRX Sti (Subaru Tecnica International).
This is a 2-litre, 4-cylinder turbo engine that adopts a reinforced cylinder block, molybdenum coated steel pistons, high capacity turbo and intercooler. The power of the STi model was boosted to 280hp with 38 kg-m maximum torque. This power was efficiently transmitted to the four wheels through a 6-speed manual transmission, also incorporated by the STi team. The suspension adopts rally-proven 4-wheel struts, ensuring a smooth and stable ride over all road conditions. Blister style over-fenders on the powerful four-door body and an enlarged air intake on the hood give the Impreza WRX STi a truly charismatic appearance.
