Silvio tracks the snot out of his car... I would expect him to be going through bearings on an '04 faster than most.
There's a reason the '05+ STis got the much better unit hubs... the car can just generate too much force on the older 5x100 hubs at the race track.
Silvio, make sure you're also repacking the new bearings with some good grease so they last a bit longer. Oh, and if you're not running brake ducts, you might want to get some to keep the heat out of the bearings as much as possible, since that's what kills them the most.
