Truth is they are stock axles man. I'm working on an 8.8 ( ford) swap that will be ready soon. The rear end ts already laid out and is just waiting for custom axles. Once I get this installed there will be NO braking axles again. ( I hope). So I'll call that my next project for now.
Your car is what every Rx8 owner on here wishes it was. I think its even more badass than a FD lol. Now you just need to work on that body

Its on the table. RGonza talked me into going Semiperipheral. His car has flaps at the semiperipheral ports opening with servos, controlled with the Haltech to open at his preferred rpm. So the car behaves normal until the Vtech kicks in. LOL..I mean the flaps open and vuala, fuel is going straight to the gut.. That car makes mine look like a toyota tercel man. So it has been on the planning table for a while, but the engine is working like a charm, Why take it out? right..

Apparently the left cv joint suffered Sunday when the two axles broke. Was getting the car detailed for the meet tomorrow and it popped just moving the car forward. Ive had this problem before with them cracking on me. I'm **** out of luck. 8.8 will be in sooner than i thought. Cant keep up with this crap.

nope. the one guy is coming back in 10 days. The other one that said he had a couple never answered my pm and there's one more that I pm'ed today. What can I say. Car still on the lift waiting for a cv and the other sub frame is sitting waiting for hubs. Ohh and I'm thinking about getting me a first gen for another project. lol
