Default MY FRIST SCOOBY

Hi,everyone,im new to this site,just bought myself my first scooby,its a Subaru Impreza Sti late 1996 model jap import. I dont know anything about these cars it was a random xmas present to myself. The previous owner told me that it was remaped from Graham Goode racing P1 cambar set up 18 inch super legra alloyes running at 330 bhp,it drives quick and sticks to the road. Fantastic drive,any tips or advice would be helpful.

Could just be loose linkages, but could be a sign of wear, worth having it checked.
The front long dipstick is engine oil, to be checked cold.
The rear one, smaller is gearbox oil.

And this car has DEFINITELY been mapped to run UK fuel?
