The timing belt on a 2003 Forester should be done at around 168k km or 105k miles. The auto-tensioner may also have to be changed as well as the idler rollers. A Subaru dealer will usually ask around $180 for the belt, $200-225 for the tensioner (if it needs to be replaced). You are looking at a good $500+ for the job if they don't run into problems.
