No luck on Google or posting in 'Wheels' section and I need new stronger bearings asap for the STi V.

Cheers

don't know if they are the same but the design has changed for the rear wheel bearings on imprezas/foresters they now use taper roller bearings not the ball type anymore

Some one asked me if i could get uprated bearings a few months ago could not find anyone who done them,you could try prodrive.

cheers Paul

Even prodrive don't use uprated bearings for the WRC car; they use standard ones......I think you'd be hard pushed to find an uprated bearing for these......But if you do a group buy may be in order

Cheers mate - only one thing for it then:

I must learn to corner less hard

We have never had wheel bearing problems with Imprezas. In the distant past when we ran Clios in the Clio Cup we used to machine the hub carrier to take a bearing(Laguna if I remember right) with a larger outside diameter and the same inside diameter.

Companies like BRT in Wisbech should be able to identify a bearing that is suitable.

Thanks guys but they all want bearing numbers and laugh out loud when I say they are £70.50 EACH from Subaru

Anyone have a bearing No for a 1999 Sti V. Pretty please!

I'd rather have them to hand when starting the job as I know what will happen at the bearing stockists on a Sat morning otherwise - sod's law an' all that!

Above was for rears. I now have the number for front bearings if anyone needs it.
