hi all just a quick question. should i be putting super or optimax in my car ive only had it a week so this is the first time i have had to fill it . also the car was advertised as an sti it has the body part of it but is there anyway to tell because the place i got it form says its a uk car its a 95 impreza , am i right in saying that only imports of that age were sti's 

 

anyway thank you or any light that you can shed on these questions

Not too sure how to tell it's an STI. Red top engine maybe?

But the car should definitely be run on optimax. If it's an import that's not been mapped for the UK then optimax and booster will be required to keep it healthy.

Agree with above, optimax and booster if it's not been mapped, optimax if it has. Yes all sti's of that age are imports, whether that's what they were imported as is another matter. From what I've seen and heard the paperwork isn't always correct!!!!!! You could ring a dealer and give them the chassis no. If they sh!t a brick and tell you where to go then it's probably an import lol[] Otherwise  red top engine would be a start.

No, in 1995 you had the uk car, wrx and sti1.

 

If it's an import it would be ebtter run on optimax. A STI version 1 does not have a red top engine but it does have a limited edition plaque telling you the build code. Early sti2's were about in 95 and these have a redtop engine (well red inlet manifold).
