I feel bad that I am reading this so late. After seeing what you were trying to accomplish with the hubs the answer is using an air chisel. If I remember correctly the car came from Chicago, right? The salt and road debris corroded the hubs and the spindle and that is what prevented you from getting them apart. I had the same issue as I did an ISF brake conversion to my IS. In order to make this happen I had to get ISF hubs to make the calipers line up correctly with the rotors etc. I had the same trouble removing the hubs due to similar weather conditions and how they play havoc on the cars.

Looks great. My wife and I are coming back to Hawaii at the end of the summer and I cant wait to see all the nice cars.

Thanks for the info and help. The knuckles were a small sacrifice in order to get the hubs out. The hubs brand new are almost $500 where as the knuckles are about half that price. But i had the new knuckles from T Demand so its not a big deal. When you come to Hawaii just go to Samsons shop and you will nice cars there daily.

Congrats on the trophy, everything about your car is just amazing, I especially love the rear end, I really wanted to get that 3pc wing but after talking to you about it, I'm debating it now When are you expecting your front end?
