Thumbs up New member just poping in to say hi!!

Hi guys

Sorry I'm new to this forum thing!! Just brought myself a nice blobeye sti uk spec last Monday. Apparently it's 345bhp! No print outs but feels quick my first scooby I love it to bits already!

Just looking for a bit of advice on what oil to run in it, it has an old millers 10w 60 bottle deep in the boot. I have some of my old karting castrol edge 0w-40 just wondered if it was any good because I have read up on very mixed opinions!!

Sorry to go on! Is anyone know who K20 SUB is I have there old car my reg is SP55 VVF

Cheers Ollie

Don't change the oil brand or mixture unless you have reasons too. Look through the service history to find what oil as been used throughout its life.

You'll soon have an appetite for Subarus.

ENJOY !!

It's only once in its most recent service said its run 10w 60! Other r just engine oil or 1liter top up?! I've got a mate that uses bg Moa and a few of the bg additives I know they work he has had it in his skyline and given it hell! Just wanted to know if the 0w40 would be okay I have heard people say it fine then others say no I just like to know why? (Sorry I just like to know reasons to understand)
