To answer you queries:
-Most suspension for RX8 cost 4k above.... Wangan got a set of CST suspension cost 3k plus...... I got a set of Tein Super Street for sell, used for 6 months (7000 km)
-eyelid gotta be from Japan... Like R-Magic, Odula, Autobahn and RSW..... Not cheap tou, around RM500....
-DVD navi system can get from KK Lau accessories... Marcus has made a mold for center console to enable the monitor fittings.....
-dunno where to get this.... most probably customise using hard fiber, Mazdaspeed is not selling this
-Use only NGK spark plug 2 RE7C-L and 2 RE9B-T...... Around RM600 a set.... As for the engine oil, use rotary oil (Trust, HKS, Idemitsu and RE-Amemiya) or semi synthetic only......

my opinion is to use mazdaspeed absorber and springs they are relatively cheap.
eyelid u can buy R-Magic one. DVD navi i have no idea. MSpeed front canards u have to buy from Japan la or can order. Spark plug use NGK one better the original one.

Price in SG = SGD1250 x 2.3 = RM2875 (included everything)
Case 2: Trust PE-Titanium exhaust
Price in KL = RM5000
Price in SG = SDG1950 x 2.3 = RM4485
So SG fellas will admire the Defi across the boarder, while we from Mal will drool
at your Trust titanium exhaust..... hehheh

)I change to Tein Flex for harder setup..... Nothing wrong with the Super Street..... Letting it go for RM3500 plus installation fee.....
A quality CF or fiber eyelid from Japan wont go wrong..... After all i got a fren might be able to customise it, in CF style
