Hey yall, new here(gee captain obvious) i own a gold 82, rebuilt street-ported engine, mostly stock rebuilt carb, racing beat springs and sway bars, kosei k1s in 15 inch, wrapped in yokahama S-drives, tokico illumina shocks/struts, racing beat full exhaust system, and soon to be installed a racing beat intake, braided steel oil lines, and im in the process of modifying some rx8 seat brackets for my car to have rx8 seats. future plans include completely redoing the interior gray/black, and complete stripdown and repaint to absolute pristine white, hid light kit, and weber carb kit, possibly coilovers, and someday running fuel injection and intralling a 13b turbo from a turbo 2, but i may turbo the carbed 12a, i dont know whats involved in both.

Braided steel oil lines on, all new tie rod ends(inner and outer) and sleeves, idler arm bushings, and I'm planning on getting all new tension rod bushing, 4-link bushings, and watts link bushings(I'm replacing my watts link at the same time, as it's a little bent) and getting the Mallory 4070m fuel pump and regulator
