Just had my car serviced by our in house subaru guru Cusco Kid, work done by Geo and ably assissted by his son Kevin ( give us a twirl Kev !!) was, timing belt change, new rollers ( tensioners were fine ), engine flushed through then new ( cheaper ) oil run through, then filled with Valvoline Racing VR1 semi synthetic oil+filter, Gearbox oil changed and Teflon addative added, which made a significant improvement from having a notchy gear change to a lot smoother change, would recommend to anyone, also had the brake fluid changed and new anti- freeze as well.
Next on the list of things to do is rear diff oil change, new Whiteline adjustable top mounts, rear anti-roll bar and other rear suspension goodies , was going to go for lowering springs but Geo persuaded me to leave the ride height as it is ( its a classic sti )and go for the suspension mods ( trust his judgement ), all in all i'm a happy bunny, my thanks to George & Kev and my apologies on behalf of my fan cowl unit which decide to bite Georges hand!!!!!
