I think I've seen people make RX-8 Steering Wheels work in FDs. Haven't people also managed to fits RX-8 seats in FDs? Oh, and the new FEED front fenders use RX-8 side markers.

You can upgrade the FD rad fans with the RX8 rad fans.

Only from S2 RX8s though. The connectors are also different, so you'll need to solder on your 7 pigtail. You also have to use RX8 fan blades since the hub size is different.
