From memory mine all read between 150-165. That's a MY98 WRX wagon engine. It's a bugger to do though, being as by the time it's cool enough to work on and you've pulled everything out the way to get at the plug holes, the damn thing's most likely stone cold again when you crank it. But as above, it's the similarity between the cylinders that's the thing to watch.
