It's funny because I checked ground shipping thru Fedex and it was like $180. I wasn't about to spend that much, so I checked with one of the shipper's we've worked with in the past and they were $130. Not too shabby, so I was like, "Let's do this." I emailed Tein my info late Tuesday night and followed up with them first thing in the morning on Wednesday. The exhaust was picked up same day, caught a flight to Hawaii, and was out for delivery to Waipahu a few hours later. The shippers estimated Friday, but she told me she would try and get it here sooner. Even 2nd day to Hawaii for a box that big......$130, can't go wrong.

.............Oh, and cut back on rims....no way. In fact, I think I've hit an all time high for myself. I actually have 8 full sets of wheels for the GS, including my stocks. I need help...

I'm staying 5x100 but am using the 05 front hubs. You can see in the pic that the hub's were turned down and re-drilled to 5x100. also the knucle was plugged and re-drilled for 04 and earlier struts/coils. I looked at doing a full conversion but it's just not worth doing at this point. I would need new wheels suspension and brake rotors from a newer STi.
nice!

Haha, my long lost brother. It's comforting to know that others suffer from the same sickness.
