Not just my car. Any WRX that saw consistent brake temps over 500C chewed through bearings.
It got to the point where in endurance events, a hub change was scheduled because failure was certain.
I tested the first prototype DBA 5000 discs for WRXs and the reason they were developed was to keep heat away from the hubs and wheel bearings.
Don't know how we got onto this. It was an issue that only showed up under extreme conditions and has largely been fixed. It won't apply to the BRZ.
