2010 replacing struts end links lower control arm
I would go with a mix of aftermarket and OEM - You can get beefier / adjustable drop links and replace the OEM rubber bushes with aftermarket poly items (No need to do the more solid option, some are stiffer than others) Replace your ball joint with a subaru item

Subaru Impreza Wrx 2010 parts list
Plus one for ICP - they do a rear chassis bolt kit with all the bolts you need. If you are looking at removing the large bushes be aware Subaru do not list a replacement so yo will need to look at an alternative - I used the Whiteline kit. When you come to remove the bushes do this outside as they make a bit of a smell 😁

Headlights Adjustment advice.
Not as new as yours but I did refurb my impreza headlights and once refitted they were very low, a quick visit to a buddy who does MOT's and he pointed out that even though they are self levelling they do need to be set up initially - he then turned to with a spanner and within a few turns he had them set properly. Why not drop into an MOT place and get them checked as they may not have been set correctly from the factory - this would not be picked up for x3 years until first MOT is due

H6 head gasket sealer?
I am not sure how drilling the thermostat will help as it already has a small hole to enable a little flow when closed and when heating up it will open fully so as soon as it gets warm you will have full flow to the radiator. Is it possible you have and airlock in the system?

Fuel pump
Keep us posted - If you are going to look at the coil pack itself maybe consider a stick coil conversion from the later models?

Getting a Gen 1 Subaru this week
Wotcha and welcome - On paper some reasonable mods there, not sure you need a front mount for 320bhp could have retained a top mount but I am not as familiar with the classics as some of the other members.

09 subaru impreza exhuast
NA engines as susceptible to back pressure to get them to run properly. Removing the back box shouldnt impact it though. Did teh faults correct them selves when up put the muffler back on?

H6 head gasket sealer?
I have only read bad things about liquid gasket sealant and the subaru product steer well clear - blocked coolant passage ways leading to engine destruction

Fuel pump
Given the age of your car it would not be a bad idea to replace both pump and filter. The stalling could be down to an electrical issue with the plugs or bad earth?? Are there any codes being generated? Check you hoses as well you may have a small leak somewhere Check this pump put as an option - allegedly built in the same factory as other branded pumps but I have had no issues with ICP service https://www.importcarparts.co.uk/parts-info?id=14254&cat=3678&sub=3680&sec=0&var=0&dc=&gen=0&searchKey=&searchPart=

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Wow - thats sounds awful! I wonder if the beam can be adjusted by the sensors under the car front and rear - different length bars maybe to change the angle less?
