Subaru Impreza MK2 Seat Guide
The Impreza MK2...
The 2nd generation Impreza was built between the years 2000-2007 on a significantly modified version of the first generation, the new Impreza followed the same formula as its predecessor, including a similar silhouette. Despite this the front end styling is unique and came in three different versions that over time gained nicknames from car enthusiasts called ‘Bug Eye, Blob Eye, Hawk Eye’. This car is available with a 1.5L EJ15 F4 engine and can go up to a 2.5L EJ25 F4 version that has huge potential for high performance when modified.Â
However, once you start using your Impreza for fast road and track use, you’ll soon realize just how much you need new bucket seats to provide more support.Â
On cornering, you may find your self holding onto the steering wheel tighter than usual, tensing your thighs and legs against the central console and/or door card. You’ll probably find your weight shifting in the seat and having to re-position your self after the corner.Â
None of this is correct. Your seat should provide the right level of support so that you can grip the steering wheel only for steering, your legs should be supported and your weight shouldn’t shift around. The recommendations we provide are to ensure that you feel comfortable and supported allowing you to focus on the job at hand.Â
We’ve worked closely with our customers to create our Subaru Impreza MK2 guide.
The resulting recommendations are based on previous customer car installations.
