Question Can Anyone Point Me ....

To a site/information about adjusting the HandBrake on a MY00 Classic Impreza?

Also, at 78,000miles my rear brake pads look quite thin (so the MOT man said) - any info on replacing them?

I replaced my front Discs and Pads on 66,000miles and that was a simple job - are the rears as easy?

The Rear Discs are not worn at all, so it will only be a Pad change.

Handbrake won't have anything to do with the rear pads, it's a separate drum style system that uses separate shoes and the insides of the rear discs. So the rear pads can be changed in the same way as you'd do the front pads

I know they are 2 different systems ..... but the handbrake is squealing and stops when I click it up a notch or two.

Subaru, themselves, say that to stop the handbrake squealing - "Drive at 30MPH for a while with the handbrake on" ............. as well as being an Engineer, I have the ability to read
