Wont fit as they are 5x100, whereas Mazdas are 5x114.3

Only the later model STi's are 5x114.3 IIRC

did you forget to put some silicone sealant around the cam cap humps of the gasket?

Ah OK, good point. Didn't bother to check that and somehow I don't think STi wheels are going to be very affordable :P

Haha do you mean did I remember? Yes I did put the proper RTV silicone stuff in the corners around the cam humps. There was some there already, so I just replaced it.
