Broken Stut mount Stud. Anyone Did This Before?
It is one of the strut tower brace to firewall studs actually, not one of the front strut bolts. Since it is the one that is closest to the tower and the bracket is welded to the tower, I may not be able to drill it out.
Anyone tried this before?

I spun this same one off. I've not gotten it fixed yet but it's on the list of things to get done before track season starts up again.
Followed the torque settings and everything... just kept spinning until 'poof.'

It's a common issue on the Impreza chassis. Welcome to Subaru. Give it a search on NASIOC to see what the common fixes are.

The only problem is that there is no space for me to drill the broken one out.
