RX8 Eccentric Shaft: What else is needed to run this in my 13BREW???
Please anyone, if you know, speak up. I need another eccentric shaft and am wanting to go with the RX8 shaft, but am not sure what else is needed besides the shaft. Thanks

Needs to be balanced and fitted (forget the correct term). If you use RX8 rotors you need RX8 apex seals and weights and they need to be fited and balanced as well. You may want to do a thermal pellet as well.

I'm going to be using my FD rotors. So, do I just send off my rotors, counterweights, RX8 E.shaft, and clutch assembly out to get balanced? Where would I go about doing so? Thanks for the input.

It's only $172 brand new and is .6lbs lighter. I was told that mine is warped or damaged, so it may need replacing. Since I am going to be back in the motor, I might as well put in a new E.Shaft and an RX8 shaft is much cheaper.

search guitarjunkie28 (RIP) I believe he built an engine with the 8 shaft.
you might need the gears/bearings, and drill them for oil supply...I can't quite remember all the details.

If your going to go through all that trouble, take a look at Racing Beat's Lightened Rotor Assembly... I'm thinking of doing this myself eventually (when motor blows)...
