-RF wheel bearing at 95k
-power steering pump at 100k
-Idle speed controller at 103k
Clutch is the next thing that needs replacement and then the timing belts, woo....

Rev matching is a technique used to prevent unnecessary weight transfer during down-changes in a manual transmission car. For a demonstration of why this concept is useful, select third gear and accelerate to about 3000rpm, then quickly select second and release the clutch fairly rapidly. You'll notice a large forward weight transfer as the engine speed is forced to increase. This can also cause the driving wheels to lock in extreme situations.
Rev matching will make you a much smoother driver when changing down through the gears, a skill which is essential for the track and can lead to faster lap times. This technique is performed by depressing the clutch, selecting the required lower gear, increasing the throttle, and then releasing the clutch smoothly. You'll need more revs if changing from forth to second that from fourth to third. With practice, this can result in very rapid and very smooth changes, and is almost essential if driving on the track. Rev matching can also be performed while braking, this is known as heel and toe. When you first start to learn this technique, you might find it hard to predict the amount of revs you'll need for each gear, but remember any increase in revs is better than none.
I also double clutch
1. clutch in
2. move gearshift from 4 to N
3. clutch out
4. blip throttle to match revs
5. clutch in
6. move gearshift from N to 3
7. clutch out

Spund Rod Bearing at 7780 miles. Replacement Long Block Assembly from Capitol Subaru.
Here is some videos or other 09's that had the same issue:

Nice, huh?
I think my old engine was the longest an 09 WRX engine went before the rod knock start. Maybe the 3 AMSoil changes before the motor went?
