After experiencing a similar problem I swapped mine for KYB AGX adjustable shocks. They can be quicky adjusted from soft to hard with an 8-click adjustment wheel, and I find them very good. KYB make the subaru original dampers so the quality is proven.

Shhhhhhhhh, dont tell anyone, but Subaru might replace them for free if you havn't done more than about 25K miles.

It's not under warranty, but "Good Will"
They did my MY02STI a couple of days ago and I was VERRY happy!
