No it doesn't, if it's a standard WRX transmission and gear oil selection we're talking about. These have an open front diff, along with viscous centre and rear. The centre and rear are limited slip but don't need LSD oil - the fluid used in the viscous couplings is self-contained so regular 75w/90 gear oil is the correct choice. The Motul Gear 300 75/90 is fine.
You'll need, from memory, 3.5 to four litres in the gearbox and 0.8 or so in the rear diff case.

Yes car is standard WRX transmission. I already use Motul 300V in the engine so thought I'd stick with Motul for gearbox and rear diff and get the stuff all at the same time.
