i bought a 98 forester with 165000k and blew head gaskets 4 days later. good subaru mech. did the job for $2200. new everything that had to come off to do the job.......a month later the car overheated again...turns out they did not add the coolant additive. reground the heads, new larger valves, new cam and coolant additive later car runs stronger... they did the 2nd fix for free including new valves and cam. they told me its a little better performer now and the bottom end will last longer.....no problems a year later and love the improved performance...if you are willing to work thru the problems you can make it work
