What requires lubrication?
What requires lubrication (grease) besides the hinges? All the joints in the suspension appear to be sealed.

Why do you need to lubricate any of the hinges?
Something squeeking?

maybe he wants to do all his own maintenance .

well, i suppose to be absolutely sure, i'd get a service manual (which i don't have... 'cause i don't have an rx-8).
