One other question.....Struts

Ok, i know this has been covered over and over again but I'm still stuck. After reading every thread I could find on it, I am unable to determine if we (as a collective whole) think that purchasing new struts from Subaru is good or not. Was anyone ever able to validate if those that were purchased recently really were produced in 2008?

If OEM aren't a good option, what other (if any) options are there? I have seen a lot of Koni discussions and briefly thought about ordering those but all the links I could find do not seem to have them for the SVX.

I found another Bilstein thread and I liked that idea but again, could not find any place that sold them.

Finally, if all else fails, I saw some discussion on Impreza struts working on our cars. Does anyone know what year models work? Are they a direct replacement or do they need modification?

Any information would be greatly appreciated as I am stuck! I've got the money saved up and want to order some of these asap so that I can get the SVX to ride right. It's drivable right now but isn't exactly fun to drive yet. Thanks everyone
