having access to the car yet so i havent pulled the tire) it seems there isn't any camber adjustment on the 01 impreza coupe.

The strut could be bent, or one or both of the lateral links maybe. Could even be the hub housing itself, that would be some trick to do that though.

Obviously as mentioned the first thing to do is inspect and see what if anything is bent or damaged..the camber adjustment..well you can loosen the strut bolts on the hub and move the hub a tad to give you a little more positive or negative camber....

My first guess would be a bent strut.

And if it doesn't have a camber bolts in the rear (I don't think they do) you can put some in.
