Frequently asked about the 2002 Subaru Impreza

What battery does a 2002 Subaru Impreza take?
The 2002 Subaru Impreza is typically fitted with a BCI Group 51R battery — Flooded lead-acid chemistry recommended. The Raya Energy catalog has 2 matching ZITEX SKUs.
How many CCA does a 2002 Subaru Impreza need?
OEM specifies at least 450 CCA (cold cranking amps). In Canadian winters, anywhere from 450 to 540 CCA is sensible — higher CCA gives more starting headroom on the coldest mornings without affecting normal operation.
Does my 2002 Subaru Impreza need AGM?
AGM isn't required for the standard 2002 Subaru Impreza fitments listed above — flooded chemistry is fine. AGM is still a sensible upgrade for cold-climate use or high-accessory-load vehicles.
