Rating 5.0

Takumi "High Quality" 10w40 full synth, I live in Australia so reasonably hot summers and winters only ever around 10C coldest. Oil pressures spot on for the spec around 72psi at 3000rpm

Pros: oil pressures spot on

Shell Engine oil

It's perfectly fine for the WRX, and it's what I use in mine, as well as its two previous owners. My car's maintenance records include two reports from Blackstone Labs detailing their examination of the Rotella T6 5W-40 oil and according to those the engine has worn very well on that oil

Pros: engine has worn well

Shell Engine oil

I personally swapped from 5w-30 in my OBXT to T6 5w-40 and have noticed a decrease in oil consumption (newish engine with 28k so that also helps).

Pros: decrease oil consumption
Cons: catalytic convertor wear
Mileage: 28000 km

MOTUL Engine oil

For Motul you want xcess not X-clean. X-clean is only for things with direct injection. I would do xcess or t6, ether work in 5w-40. I do both of them with my stage 2.6 IAG block as they recommend. Mostly Motul, but the last change I did was t6 since I could not get motul locally or in a reasonable amount of time.

Pros: works well
Cons: availability issues

Castrol Engine oil

I use Castrol GTX 20W-50, same as what the manual calls for. I know the oils changed since then but the previous owner didn't care for the car properly so I feel like the detergents are necessary.

Pros: detergents are necessary
Vehicle: MG MGB
