Impreza Service interval
Most of us do at least 1 oil change a year, on top of the regular service even if it's not gonna be doing the mileage as bug says if modded then, what's 60 quid to drop and replace the oil for piece of mind, plus jap cars love fresh oil

Steering wheel rattle UPDATE HELP
Quick fit are rubbish, one of them near me has a hunter but they have no idea how to use it, they send people down to this local independent, he only has a super tracker alignment machine but he was British stock car champion for a few years and what he doesn't know isn't worth knowing. Do you have a good local company that has exeprience with setting up cars for fast road or track use near you?

Help needed re Major Engine Repair
There is a whole short engine on the bay at the mo brand new, it's an ej20g so an older block but all you would need to do is bolt your heads on after a skim and all the ancillaries, also know of a garage that has a jdm v8 bottom end knocking around but would need stripping and checking to be thorough

Hardest thing is getting the bolt underneath free due to access, I gave up and will pay someone when the time comes, maybe they've had a bad exeprience in the past.

2008 Subaru Outback 2.0 Boxer Timing belt / Chain Gone
Hello & welcome, sorry to hear about your problems, Boxer just refers to the engine layout it's pistons are horizontally opposed (lie flat opposite each other) where as in a standard car they are standing up in the engine bay when you look at the car, If it's snapped then the only option is to pull the engine out and take the heads off as the valves will have more than likely dropped and interfered with the pistons, a complete refurb would be need to make sure there's no nasty bits of metal stuck somewhere they shouldn't be. A replacement engine may be cheaper depends on what you wnat to spend and how much the car is worth
