Subaru Launches Custom Performance Cars at 2011 SEMA Show
US Debut of Record Setting Isle of Man WRX STITM

Vehicles to be displayed include:
· Mark Higgins’ Isle of Man fastest production car lap WRX STI
The IOM WRX STI was a production US spec car running a standard 305 HP turbocharged boxer engine. Some safety modifications were made. The Subaru was equipped with a Lifeline® fire suppression system; Hockley Motorsports roll cage, motordrive competition seats, MintexTM brake pads (but stock calipers and rotors), and an open exhaust to warn spectators of the on-coming car. The speed limiter was turned off to allow a higher maximum speed; springs and dampers were changed to accommodate the numerous high-speed jumps on the circuit, sending the WRX STI almost four feet off the ground. The car ran on street legal Pirelli® P ZeroTM Trofeo tires.

· Subaru 1986 XT Drive magazine restoration project car
The two-door Subaru XT Coupe was in its second model year for 1986. At its introduction in 1985, it was the world’s most aerodynamic production car. Its 0.29 coefficient of drag was the result of its wedge shape and a number of design details. These included a low hood line, integrated front air dam, flush roof pillars and drip moldings, high “Kamm”-style rear deck, rear-wheel air deflectors, and flush, hinged door handles; a single-blade windshield wiper tucked under the hood when not in use.
The challenge for this particular restoration rested in the fact that many of the original parts for the vehicle were not readily available. Since the goal for the project was to do an authentic reconstruction utilizing factory original parts, in almost every case it was necessary to refurbish existing parts rather than replacing them – right down to every nut, bolt, clip and screw- while at the same time respecting the dollar and time constraints of the project.
