Could be the well know issue with bugeyes and the fuel pipe, check out Nicks post about it, and check through your history. wasnt a recall, but Subaru changed them under warrenty back in the day i think.
I think Steve looked into it too.

yeah, i had mine sorted by Subaru in the end - cost about £300 but didn't think that was bad for dealer prices considering its an intake manifold off job.
however, that problem only normally gives a fuel smell when the engines cold - its a duff seal on a hose that connects the fuel rails which seems to re-seal itself when warm. if you're getting the problem under hard acceleration, i'm guessing your cars already nice and hot - i which case it might be something completely different!

Ditto to that - the fuel rail issue goes away when warm, as it happens I have two full sets of fuel rails spare now!
