Wheel bearing trouble

I have just bought an Evo 4 gsr. When test driving the car i never heard the wheel bearing making a noise but when driving the car home and getting some speed up i started to hear it. I went to the garage and they were saying i need a whole new hub assembly for the car and it was going to be £240+ VAT. I was wondering if anyone knows of other companys that sell the hub assembly.
Cheers
Jason

Welcome mate,

yes that is correct you will need a new hub (it is on the Evo 5 anyway) as for if anyone does them I don't know, I needed mine in a rush so had to pay Mitsui prices :-(

Try PM'ing Petebeemer he might know of someone.
