BRUTAL 880Hp Impreza WRC || Onboard w/ Alister MCRAE

  • The younger brother of the Legendary McRae lineage, Alister, having beaten the All Time Record of Leadfoot Festival´s Hillclimb at the wheel of the ex-Possum Bourne Subaru Impreza WRC 1998 last year, was once again the winner of the event on 2020. The Monstruous WRC unit now run by Vantage Windows Motorsport is faster than ever and converted into full HillClimb-spec, it is producing around 880Hp/940Nm.
    This is a 1998 S5 unit, originally driven by Juha Kangas on the New Zealand Rally, and is still powered by the 2.0L engine unit but now equipped with a Borgwarner EFR 7670 or EFR 8374 (depending on the kind of power and powerband required) with external wastegate. Running on E85 Fuel, it has an RPM limit set at 9000Rpm, delivering a maximum of 940Nm of torque at 5600Rpm.
    All this additional power is transferred to the ground through a 4-Wheel Drive transmission with a Prodrive Hewland 6 speed H-Pattern with hydraulic centre and front diffs, while the rear one is now either a Hewland spool diff or locked LSD option. Suspension-wise it is equipped with Reiger dampers, 3 way adjustable, double piston and RCV with tarmac springs alongside Titanium sway bars for tarmac events.
    While still weghing an hefty 1200Kg, it is an enormously quick machine, putting all this power to the ground in a very efficient manner, the key to its continued success at Rod Millen´s Leadfoot Festival, where it won the last 4 Editions.

    Ex 1998 Subaru WRC..was crashed during the 98 WRC round in NZ driven by Juha Kangas..purchased by the late great Possum Bourne, rebuilt and rallied in NZ and Aussie until ex WRC were banned in NZ and Aussie championships..Possum converted it into a hill climb car, until his tragic death, great to see it out there still winning. RIP Colin, Richard burns and Possum, all Subaru WRC drivers who were taken too soon!!

    I wonder if he’s deliberately running mostly on 3 tyres in the corners due to the locked rear diff. That’s some mad level of control to shift the weight to make inside rear tyre airborne if that was the case. And oh that’s an xtrac H-pattern dogbox which is a semi-auto I believe, and the same style of gearbox for the upcoming T50 by a Gordon Murray Automotive, developed by the same company (x-trac)
