Default Best parts for a serivce?

I going to get my car serviced and was wondering if the parts used make a big difference.

I was mainly wondering about things like plugs and air filter.

Any advice would be great.

Thanks

What car do you have? Mileage? Modded? Track days?

sorry should of said it's a bug eye wrx. Around 90,000 miles and just used as a daily run around. It's had a recent cambelt so will just be looking to change all oils, filters and plugs.

If its done 90k on Subaru parts, I'd stick with them, mate. You can save a few bob fitting a cotton air filter which will last longer than the standard one which should be replaced every 3 years. Use a decent synthetic engine oil and change it every 5k miles. As long as you use OE quality parts you'll be fine. Bob
