The latest Gp N Subaru WRX STI from JRM marks
the beginning of an official partnership between
the British motorsport preparation specialist and
Subaru Tecnica International (STI), the motorsport
division of Subaru.
This international-specification car brings Subaru’s
latest vehicle technology back to the Gp N category –
a stage on which it has won six FIA Production Car
World Rally Championship titles – and gives JRM
customers a competitive and affordable rally car that
is true to the founding principles of the Gp N category.

A unique development

The JRM Gp N Subaru WRX STI is
designed and built in association with
STI and is the most up-to-date rally car of
its type in the world.
The car is available in both RHD and
LHD configurations and can be fitted
with optional equipment to suit driver
requirements.
It is the first WRX STI of its generation
in Europe to be built in a sedan
configuration. This guarantees improved
aerodynamics, traction and balance over
the alternative hatchback model.
JRM takes pride in the quality of its
customer support service. It can provide
full parts, rebuild and engineering
support to all customers if required.
