The Impreza model is already 'new', and Direct Injection was done in conjunction with Toyota, the clue will be if the new WRX/STI uses direct injection. If not, don't count on any other models getting it soon.

See the Legacy DIT and the soon-to-be released Forester XT with DIT, and I believe these are Subaru's own DI systems, not Toyota's
