Air filter
Motul 300V competition. I use the same in the summer. This is the best you can get ( not cheap ) Regarding the quantity that is 4,5L so you need to buy 5L.

Air filter
Are you interested in a CAI as well or just a filter? If yes then a HKS racing suction kit is a good choice ;)

noobie advice
Change the Oil and the filter frequently. (I am doing this every 3-4K! ) Only use premium quality oil! ( Motul or other equivalent ) This is more important than the cooling. Do not rev and floor the car until its properly warmed up. That distance for a turbocharged car is a bad joke ( from the warming point of view ) Do you have any gauges installed in your car? boost, oil tempretaure, oil pressure ?

Merry Christmas Every1

Is a Subaru worth the running costs?
Try to quote as an additional driver with your parents or something. Ohh boy If I could afford to have a Subaru when I was 20 ;) If this will be your first car be very careful. I always wanted an STI. This car is a legend ( at least for me ;) ) Put a big smile on me every time I drive it. The lovely boxer sound... I had stronger car as well but nothing to compare to an STI. Go for it. You won`t regret that I promise

Subtle performance ideas needed.
Top ones are almost just for the show compare to the subframe and anti roll bars...
-
Subtle performance ideas needed.
My favorite ones: bushing, strut braces, anti roll bars I prefer the handling above the power

What would you do?
Well. The condition depends on how the car was handled from new. The problem is even If the car is jacked up is hard to tell the mount is good or bad until you take it off. Some sign: if you change the gear sometimes you feel the stick is sloppy or not in the right place properly. Even the rubber is in good shape the transmission house can move and this causing less power on the drive train Keep in mind because the Cusco mount holds your transmission house properly the vibration will be increased! This is a really good upgrade if you use your Scooby properly ;) ( agressive acceleration, hard cornering etc
-
What would you do?
More precise shifting. With a stock mount the transmission is moving slightly as you changing gears. The Cusco one is holding the transmission house very tight. Second benefit the Cusco is much stronger than the stock. The stock transmission mount is not last too long because of the poor quality :( ( Sorry to say but all the European model has this crap. The JDM version has a very similar to the Cusco its called Group N transmission mount ) Just to show the difference see below Cusco transmission and engine mount. ( Very strong and last forever ... ;) ) Stock ( You can see the nice quality of the lousy rubber ) It looks like this after 60-70K miles ):
-
What would you do?
Strongflex bushing kit is around £350 Probably the work costs a couple of hundreds too. Cusco transmission mount is around £170
-
What would you do?
I would change the bushes to Powerflex or Strongflex (strongflex is less expensive but still good quality) and the transmission mount to cusco. This is not a fancy upgrade because no one will notice but you. This is a nice upgrade to change your car handling. I would not upgrade engine or remap etc.

New 2015 Sti leaking from rear-diff.....
Please keep us updated. What is going on? Did they sort the leaking out? If yes, how? Is this a known factory fault by now? I am asking this because my mate just ordered an STI and we want to avoid any nasty surprise :) Thank you in advance!
