...As far as we know Impreza rear differential is not a limited slip differential therefore we recommend Motul Gear 300. :D :D :D Nice reply from Motul.

So GEAR 300 for box and 90PA for LSD.

Thanks

I changed mine with Castrol Syntrax 75/90 front and Motul Gear 300 rear but next time I'll prefer the Motul for both as it seems better quality product overall.
Castrol SAF-XA is a good choice for rear LSD but ours isn't this type of diff.

My owner’s book says 75/90 API-GL5 (no need for special LSD oils).
Could the professionals answer here?
