MOT passed 27/ 09/ 2023The GB270 was the end of an era, being the last Impreza with a shape synonymous with the rally cars that made Subaru famous.
The GB refers to Rally GB, Subaru’s most successful WRC event over the years, while the 270 refers to the increase of power to a liberating 270PS that the flat four delivers. (266 bhp).
The GB270 was based on the Impreza WRX but had another 40hp from the standard car's 230, plus a substantial torque boost of 74lb ft resulting in a total of 310lb ft. It was courtesy of the Prodrive Performance Pack, which upgraded the intercooler, exhaust, and ECU, and meant that the GB270 offered a noticeable step up in performance over the WRX – all delivered via a quick shift gearchange, which tightens up the gearbox making it a pleasure to drive.
Chassis revisions included a lower ride height (30mm front, 10mm rear) and bigger wheels. Cosmetically it got a new front grille and one of the most spectacular spoilers ever seen on an Impreza.
There is also a Subaru GB270 club, however, this car has never been registered with the club.
