I used to run a high quality fully synth 10/40 in my old WRX but using 10/60 millers in the "R"
I'm sure oil man recommends 5/40 in the new age cars.

Thats 3 two be going on with

What happened to the STI Ozz?

I've always used either Motul V300 15-50 or Silkolene Pro R 15-50 in my cars. Been using the silkolene recently as I can pick that up from West Wales lubricants in carmarthen. Works out cheaper than opie for me as I don't have to pay carriage
