I recently just hit a curb. I thought it was just the tire when I had did it and tried driving down to the tire shop within like a mile but my car started smoking near the tire. I noticed when I pulled over because it started smoking that my brakes were super easy to push. So i get out and look and my car is leaking near the rear wheel where the damage was so I supposed that was a brake line. And I think my axle is broken too. Any ideas on what other parts would need to be bought?

The entire rear suspection? Possible the subframe? You need a professional who can examine the car.
Find a junk yard RX8 and pick it for parts. Buying this stuff new is going to be expensive.

Yeah ok thanks. I have been trying to look on ebay for axles, drive shafts, and brake lines. I am only 17 and don't have much money lol. Hopefully its not much more to it. My car is to low to get it up with a jack so I have been looking for ways to get it up. People say make a ramp and drive onto it and then try from there.

Yes, put down a few planks of wood and drive up on them. Enough that you can get a jack under it. You can also jack by the differential housing, it's a little easier to get under it. Just put some wood or something between the jack and the diff.
