2003 wrx prodrive servicing?
Im coming up for my 60,000 mile service, Is this a big service? Im thinking of getting the spark plugs changed and having the diff oil and brake fluid etc done
what oils, fluid and plugs are best to go for? would you go for full sythetic?

60k/6 year should be a big service, definately gearbox oil, diff oil, engine oil, check the belts though you should have had those done last year plugs, coolant possibly and air filter.
Not worth putting fully synthetic in your car if its never been run on it with 60k on the clock, always best doing it with lower miles as the wear that the fully synth reduces has already been caused.

Hi Shane I had my 60k done on my MY03 WRX @ the end of Feb. There are several independent specialists in the area who will know what's right for your car.
Plugs are done for this one. Plus all your fluids including coolant & brake fluid. Also all your filters : oil, air & fuel.
I am on fully synthetic oils.
Silkolene Pro S 10/50 Fully Synthetic Engine Oil
Silkolene SILKTRAN SYN 5 75W-90 Fully Synthetic Gear Oil
Silkolene BOA 90 Limited Slip Differential Oil
Silkolene Pro-Race 2000 Brake Fluid
