Picking up '13 limited, couldn't take the wait any longer, specially when I ran across one with exactly what I want sitting on the dealer lot.

Getting a big chunk off MSRP (over 1K) and most of my payoff, so unless the dealer tries to pull some funny business with my trade value it's a done deal, poor sales guy stayed late tonight to get everything drawn up.

Oh and it's a Feb 2013 production so hopefully no weird issues.

Excellent. Now buy my Brembos.

So after helping a friend do all four hub bearings on their '05 Legacy and the general understanding that the '08+ Impreza and BRZ share the same suspension I'm fairly certain that swapping to 114.3x5 would be very, very easy and cheap as long as the spline count on the driveshafts is the same.

hi, i am looking to swap wheel hubs for my 2015 BRZ form the stock 100x5 to 114x5. I believe the 2015 WRX hubs will fit the rear but i am not sure about the front. with your experience, will the 08+ impreza hubs fit the front of the BRZ? I already have 411x5 wheels and itching to put them on. just need to invest in the right hubs.

So I'm doing a hub conversion, but it's to one of your guys hubs. I've got a 2002 wrx that's been taken RWD and its end goal is a purpose built drift car. I just picked up a custom rear knuckle that will let me run 2 calipers, but I've got to run a BRZ hub to keep it 5x100 (I have multiple sets of wheels already to mount tires and swap at drift events). I still have the R160, and I'm trying to figure out how to connect BRZ hubs to an R160. It seems like a lot of your guys stuff will swap with STI stuff. Does anyone here know enough about CV axles and BRZ spline counts/lengths to help me out?
