Hi Frag, I personally use Mobil 1 motorsport 15w/50. Other recommended oils are: Motul 300V 15w/50 or Castrol RS 10w/60.

BTW are you going to the meet on Sunday? If you are see you then mate.

Drexel's said it all as far as the recommendations are concerned. The only thing to add is that there's a "right" way to change the oil, and it's especially important on an Impreza due to the design of the engine.

Whether you're planning on DIY or getting someone else to do it, it's worth making sure about the way it's done. Have a look here for the skinny.
