The approx cost of my first DIY oil change on the BRZ, getting all the parts necessary to do it- well here it is itemized:

Rhino ramps - ~$45

Cheap socket wrench kit - $15

Oil filter - $5 at Subaru dealership

Crush washer - $1 Subaru dealership

6 quarts of synthetic oil - $40

Oil funnel - $5

Oil drain pan - $10

Oil recycle jug - $10

Shop towels - $5

Fast orange - $5

So about $150 for all this to get setup, after that DIY oil changes should cost maybe less than $40-50 each. Cheaper than the $90 oil changes at Subaru dealerships.
