Default Oil advise please! for my 95 wrx

I have a my95 WRX 44k miles, I am just about to do an oil change on the car but I am unsure what oil is best suited to my year and mileage? I have done a search but all the comments seem to be on newer cars. I do not have any big mod’s on the car so its pretty standard.

Go with what you feel happy with m8.
Some of the guys on here like to have a expensive oil, which will out perform their cars,some ,however like to skimp a little because they never take their cars above 3000rpm....ever.

Personaly,i would go for the more expensive oil, but thats me and NOT pslewis.
