Default Alternate wheel bearings?

I seem to recall a couple of you (Matt? Dean?) getting Nissan part numbers for front wheel bearing replacement because they are superior to the Subaru ones for some reason. Am I on crack, or should I PM Cory back and say "I told you so!"?

Did you get '04 STi knuckles recently? 'Cause that's what those Nissan bearings are for I believe. Not so sure they fit in anything else.

Funny thing is, I did search. I probably skipped that thread because it had "04" as the first word fo the title...
