Default Ist subaru impreza

As title suggests Im completely new to the subaru impreza. I have just bought a 94 wrx sti with 72500 miles on the clock. What Im wondering is where can I get a good manual for my car and whats the best oils to use in it. Im not really looking to up the power as im quite impressed with it as is but the suspension has been fitted with lowering springs and is a very hard ride over any bumps so what suspension would best suit me for decent ride height and smoothness of ride on the road.

Thanks for any help.

Wayne.

Welcome
These cars run a 10w40 semi synthetic as standard, go no lower than a 40 or higher than a 50, no lower than a 5 or higher than a 15 and you should be ok
Will leave the suspension q for now, its late but lots of options (some fairly expensive) to choose from.

Tony

PS, sort the brakes out, the 2 pots really are bad

Many thanks for your replies. Yep the brakes are on my list are the ksport upgrades any good as they seem to be the best value. Im also going to give my car a bit of a face lift with my favourite thing about the looks of a subaru a type 5-8 spoiler, I think thats what its known as but Im also looking for a P1 front bumper but havent a clue where to look for one. Other than that just a few engine upgrades more for preserving it than giving more power but a bit more is always a good thing im sure you will agree.

Thanks again lads.
