Default oil question

Hey sorry if this is mentioned somewhere previously im in a bit of a rush no time to surf the forum.

I was just wondering how much engine oil a GC8 takes? I no the type of oil I need just want an idea how much it will take so I no how much to buy.

Its a 1997 WRX thanks guy

4.5L if you change the filter at the same time, 4.7L for a dry rebuilt engine


i generally chuck 4.5 litres in it, start it up, turn it off, let it settle for an hour then check dipstick & top up if required
