Maintenance schedule. This information can also be found in one of the smaller booklets that came with the Owner's Manual for your '03 WRX.

There is more then air filter and spark plugs dood.
30K is the first major service.
I think its engine/tranny oil, brake fluid, air filter, inspect brakes, clutch cable adjust, only do spark plugs if is an STi, or if you experience detonation, get one step colder plugs.
I had mine done at LIC motor sports, I will be going back for my 60K in about 15K miles.
I need to get new brake pads/rotors and 45K service.

Changing anything but oil & filter seems excessive at 30k. Newer hondas don't see brake fluid/ tranny oil/ coolant/ spark plugs until around 100k miles!
