Your spare tire will become a paper weight though. Although, I've had people tell me that I could use a spacer on the spare and it would work fine. I'm not sure what size spacer, but it's worth looking into. Maybe you'll figure that one out for me!?

Thanks for looking out, but I can score a set of Brembo's for half that price. Although the two piece rotors are nice.

Just a quick correction on this...Rob Hines (fantastic driver that he is) wasn't the one on the pole at the Runoffs; it was Bob Schader (from Boulder) who started from the pole in his (now sold) 350Z and got mugged in Turn 1 by the Subies and a BMW.

And I hate the RX-8 too, dang purpose built auto-x machines they are with no power and light weight handling!
