So I have been quoted $1045.
Water pump + gasket
Timing belt kit + cam seals
2x rear struts.

I dont think that is trade price.

From memory genuine struts from subaru are very expensive, even at trade
Did they give you a price break down?

$175 each.

I have been quoted $135 each for genuine through a workshop but thought to support Subaru directly.....

I wouldn't buy the Sorny or Panphonics but Mitsuboshi belts are top JDM quality. (not Mitsubishi, not a typo either) They are original equipment on Subaru and are the only ones that don't ever squeak and don't stretch. I've never used their timing belts though.

So I have sourced the very same parts through a workshop owned by a friend. $775
