aye, Mr Wood, the father that spawned the P1, RB5, RB320 and most of the other great Ltd Editions UK Subaru's
When I spoke to Paul Tunnicliffe during my engine failure saga, I asked if I had fitted a Japan STI exhaust would it be under warranty, he said any JDM STI parts would not be covered????
I said to him that was just pure stupidity, STI built the car, and they make the parts, if the 2 are fitted together, how can it matter, they were designed to be fitted???
At least Pro-R will come with the warranty safe for upgrades which is very peace of mind, just hope they come up with some decent stuff.

That diesel has gotta beat mine there first & we all know thats not gonna happen in a hurry hahaha
I would have gone with SPT like the US, Pro R sounds like a copy of Prodrive

It's not a copy of prodrive in the slightest, the companys involved with the Pro-R range are superb, Unless your telling me that RCM'S input is worth nothing

I get why people are saying that Prodrive are world renowned but then so are subaru.
Pro-r is just the name they are setting for their tuning parts, all the companys they are using to supply the parts are world renowned such as alcon, superpro, samco, eibach etc, so i don't see why it couldn't be as good.
Just my two pence on it all.

I will stick with the very best parts available rather than a Pro R sticker thanks.

Given that they are simply retailing other manufacturers products, surely they are simply abusing their position as Subaru UK in offering to maintain the cars full warranty for 3rd party parts bought from them?. If you bought the same exhaust that is on the Pro-R web site from elsewhere it would then void the cars warranty - seems unfair when all they are doing is retailing the product......

There seems to be double standards at play.

I have to say though, for something which has taken so long, that website is shyte.
Now can anyone tell me which part I should order if I want Eibach springs for a 2008 STI(330S)
This part (PREBFE1001) mentions an STI, but only 2003-2007.
This part (PREBFG1000) mentions the 2008-2011, but not STI?

Ok I wasn't sure, thought prodrive did a suspension tweak, must have been just wheels and a remap
Thougt as much but always worth a check
Pro-R is only a UK based company and trying to for fill UK Subaru's owners needs since Prodrive and Subaru parted company. IIRC
Not certain yet if all Pro-R bits are signed off for 3 year Warranty by Subaru UK yet
