the 09 final drive will cost a lot more than $250.

i looked it up on kia parts. i dont feel like wading through 17 pages of crap to find whether anyone did this.

although i did see that canzoomer ran 13.78 with 215/35/17 tires and their stage 1 map.

So the KIA rnp doesn't fit, but...

Had to go through so many pages just to read that the KIA rnp doesnt fit the rx8 pumpkin. Can't the OP or a mod edit the initial post to include this info?
Sigh.
You can always order the S2 rnp directly from mazdaspeedmotorsports for about 650 shipped, or from the regular online mazda stores for 700ish. The part number is RS08-27-110A. Yes, its double the original price but its still worth the swap if you want a brand new, oem fit part. The bearings/seals can be had for another 200 or so online. Having had a difficult time finding a used 2009-2011 pumpkin (and bracket) from an 6spd s2, id say this is a worthwhile swap.
