I'm pretty sure N/A axels won't like "11.40 ET's" and "461 rwhp".
Why do you need more axels? Doesn't anyone make chromoly T2 axels?
Conventional logic says, if you need to replace a part because you break it, doing so with a weaker part would only increase the frequency of replacement
But assuming we overlook that... the halfshafts are one piece to the best of my knowledge so you would have to use the N/a halfshaft which I believe is a different length/diameter and thus would not work w/ the T2 diff. If you wanted to cut the flanges off the shaft and weld up the n/a flange (terrible idea) that might "work" .
Mazda trix has an interchange chart http://mazdatrix.com/g5.htm and specs on the halfshafts.... http://mazdatrix.com/G8DiffMnt.HTM
Short answer....NO.

I was thinking of a possiblility of swapping the flange on the diff side to a non turbo for two reasons. one, easier to find axles. two, axles appear as strong as the t2 ones, but i figured the flange wouldnt fit the lsd diff as its different. Im new at upgrading drivetrain on these cars and am just throwing things out there. How else am i supposed to learn if i dont experiment or ask questions.
Also this wasnt my 461 hp setup. I had my autocross setup with a t04e at 15psi (prob 280-300hp). Here is a pic of the broken cup... and no, i didnt wheel hop or sidestep my clutch, i slip it off the line.
