The only meaningful answer to your question must come from the person who wants to sell the fan belt to you. This forum does not support retail activities.

You don't "set" a timing belt. There is no adjustment, either it's right or it's not. You change a timing belt at whatever interval Subaru recommends for your Forester. --Ken
This may sound like a smart-alec answer, but I am serious. Take your Forester to the auto parts store. Tell them you want the blades replaced. They will do it for you for the cost of the blades. No extra charge, at least in my experience. I changed my own timing belt and water pump, but the wipers I leave to the experts! -Ken
I just got an estimate for my 02 wrx wagon at $904. bummed.
Yes it does. So it's best to replace the timing belt at recommended intervals. Waiting till it breaks could cause serious engine damage.
It is a fairly simple process, involving removing the shields at the top, loosening and removing the old belt, putting the new belt on, and replacing the shields. But since you are asking here I would recommend taking it to a professional.
Yes, and it must be replaced every 105,000 miles. Warning: This is an interference engine.
Follow the recommendation in your owner's manual.
