Default Whats the best place for service parts

im confident with a spanner and am going to service my 96 impreza wagon turbo R. need advice on best:

oil filter(is it best going subrau or will high performance be better)
oil (is there specific grade that suits the turbo more than most)
plugs + coil pack leads
brake fluid
air filter (panel)

i know its gonna be few hundred quid, but needs doing, just need to know where people have found there service parts from for the classic.

Hi mate I have not got a classic but parts are easy to get
Opie oils are your best bet for oil, you just put the details of your car in and it tells you all the choices available and if it modified you can get good disscounts as well if you ask.
Oil filters and air filters you can get from Sccoby Parts or Scooby World.
There are company's in the trader section that do plugs and coil packs or you could search Ebay for any of the above items.

got my gasket today, bit of a pain to refit plastic intercooler pipe, had to comprimise and fit pipe then fit intercooler and struggle getting bolts into intercooler pipe, did manage it eventually of course, took it for a blast i like it, i like it a lot

what power will my 96 wagon turbo be standard? its the impreza R model, presume its same as wrx but not as powerful as STI, correct me if im wrong, its an import
