Subaru Rally Team Australia's Dean Herridge will drive for Subaru Rally Team Japan in this year's Propecia Rally New Zealand and Telstra Rally Australia in October.
Herridge will drive a Group N Impreza WRX STi on behalf of SRTJ, in New Zealand from 3-6 October and Perth, from 31 October to 3 November.
The team is backed by Subaru Tecnica International, the high-performance arm of Subaru.
Enjoying his first year with SRTA, Herridge said: "It's a great opportunity to compete again at an international level.
"This year's been a fantastic learning experience with the factory-backed Subaru team in the Australian championship and I'm sure I can put a lot of those lessons to good use in these two world rally events."
SRTJ has participated in World Rally Championship events with Group N cars since 1990.
Its achievements include eight consecutive victories in the Safari Rally, Kenya, from 1990-97.
Subaru Australia General Manager Nick Senior said: "Dean's having a solid season with SRTA and this is another great chance to build on his experience in an international setting."
The team consists of STi and Fuji Heavy Industries (FHI) employees and Japanese mechanics who normally work at Subaru dealerships in Japan.
Herridge's SRTA teammates, Possum Bourne and Cody Crocker, will also drive Group N Impreza WRX STis in both rallies, in their normal Australian colours.
All three will contest Rally Melbourne for SRTA from 20-22 September.
