This is the pair that just broke
this are the BHR set I just installed. We had to machine them becouse they were bent. The guys were more than willing to help us out with a new set, but I desided to fix them my self. Just want to clarify that Charles is tha BOMB. He contacted me several times to get them fixed but I simply didnt do my part.

Are you going to use the irs/cradle from a cobra for your 8.8 or are you having somthing custom done to use the rx8 rear suspension? Just want to know if you will be parting with any of your aftermarket rear suspension arms/traction bars/etc., I may be interested...

The 8.8 is in the rx8 subframe already. So all the bars will stay on the car. Oh btw i didnt have it done. Did it in our shop with cheo(partner in crime). Hehe

Well, this thread is dying so here is our other project. and yea thats me on the pics having some fun. So lets me explain. Cheo, who is and always will be my partner in crimes and tool maker/ machinist, owns the 1.8, his son owns the starlet and I own the 8 and the 7. And we all have lots of fun at the shop.

It's not like you're busy or anything, can you take some pics of it sometime, maybe list what you had to do (parts/labor) to get it done?

Yes I do have the centercaps, But they are kinda loose. So Ill get them in there once the car is parked at the show. I've been meaning to fix them for a while but always forget..
