Hello all. New to the subaru world
what year do you have I might have a workshop guide kicking about. most things Subaru related Youtube has a video for but not always. The suspension on these do tend to dry up and make a knocking noise or creek mine does the same so might be nothing. These car do tend to be a bit more noisy than most :)

Hello all. New to the subaru world
Oh I thought you was asking about anything to improve the car :D well have a guide here for when buying a car but might be helpful http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/1619-help-check-guide-buying-1st-subaru/ top rear struts seem to be the biggest weak point on them. so I'd give them a check over know to rust pretty bad.

Hello all. New to the subaru world
Hello mate welcome to S.O.C As you said best places to start is to strip any weight from the car you don't need brakes and suspension are all best places to start :) as for which ones to use I'm not too sure what the non turbo guys have as a choice.

Soon to be Impreza owner :)
It matter's not one bit here if it's a Turbo, non turbo, STI, WRX as long as it has the badge is all that matters ;) The non turbos can be great cars lose weight better suspension and brakes with the AWD can be quick cars. As for the insurance I think it's ringing around and finding what suits you and pocket. Compare sites work for a few, for me can't stand them and not interested in any little cuddly toy or plastic robot. Unfortunately with specialist insurance it is a case of ring them all like playing tennis and play them off each other. Just like it was when I first started to drive but only real way to get best quotes is try them all. But for many people specialist usually give the best deals on these types of cars.

Worrying loss of oil on a 200 mile run
If you hadn't checked the oil for 8 months and have driven the car almost daily before to 200 miles it is a good chance it's just used that amount over that period of time. I find I have to give mine a top up before I come round to oil and filter change again as they do use a lot of oil. But I drive mine daily sometimes giving it some.
