I would highly suggest keeping this set-up because solid lifters must be adjusted extremely often. To adjust them you have to get to them. This means the engine comes out. Big pain in the butt to do every couple months.
The other popular option are roller lifters but there is simply not enough space in our design to accomodate the roller.

He said convert to solid...
My 98 RS cam with solid lifters, as do all modern DOHC subarus. Valve lash adjustment has to be done... pretty much never.
