Default Newby - General car care

Hello there. You can probably see I'm new to this, as I've just came from a 98 vectra GSI (Yuk) to a 99 Impreza turbo (modded exhaust and brakes).

I'm just after a bit of 'general' advice about the car that would be different to any other normal car.
I've done a search but cant find info basic enough.

So far I understand I should:
- use optimax every time.
-Allow the turbo to cool for a a few minutes before turning the engine off.
-Use fully synthetic oil


Is there anything to beware of? (e.g 4X4, turbo)

TIA

Wrong section, this section is for car care in terms of detailing. Can a mod move it to the right home please?
