2004 Subaru Impreza WRX STI Petter Solberg Edition
Subaru Impreza WRX STI “Petter Solberg Edition”
Been refined with:
4” downpipe and high flow catalytic converter + 3” exhaust
GoFastBits blow off valve
Uprated fuelpump and spark plugs.
EBC drilled rotors in front & ebc redstuff pads all around.
XYZ Super Sport coilovers
Rota GRA 17x7.5J wheels in Gunmetal.
2x Perrin wing stiffies
TRU-V front lip
Rally Armor mud flaps
ECU-retuned for fitted parts, boost @ 1.35 bar
What sets the “Petter Solberg Edition” apart from the regular wrx sti is mostly estethics like a limited edition gearknob and some plaques celebrating the 2003 wrc victory for Petter Solberg. Most notably though is that the car has the DCCD gearbox. (Driver controlled center differential). Meaning i can either lock it in 50/50 or have it fully opened which then always transmit 65% of the torque to the rear axel. Also there is an automode and some modes in between fully locked and fully open.

Looks very similar to this one, but I’m guessing it isn’t, as there are subtle differences.

Lol I posted that video on CT a few hours ago
Whats the difference between the normal WRX STI and the Peter Solberg Edition?
Ehm differences include a few esthetic things like a limited edition gearknob and some plaques celebrating the 2003 WRC victory and also it has the DCCD. :)
Im in love!
Is this the same as the UK market ER1, but with different wheels and in red…?
Did you mean WR1? Then yes i think its quite similiar. The wheels arent stock though, they’re Rota GRA 17” in gunmetal :)
You are correct Jakob, the wheels are different 👍. I must be honest, having owned a WR1 I would have another in an instance, but that ted one looks superb 🚗🚗
Thanks! Its a lovely car isnt it? :D
