Trying to help
I am not too sure what everyone's screen name is but i was talking to someone at this meet about their OMP lines and they said they needed to replace theirs as it was the wrong size?
Anyway if you are still looking to replace those I found a link on the nopistions forum that might help as this guy was able to replace his on a 3rd gen rx7 although not exactly what you are looking for it maybe a good starting place?
http://www.nopistons.com/3rd-generat...-option-75602/
also there is one for sale on ebay:

Hope that helps

@work2play : the guy with the omp line problem was me haha LY rx8 .
Thanks i contacted mazdatrix and they had no such information on the omp adapter so i ended up contacting rotary aviation from real world solutions and they helped me out. i got the hose size its 1/4 ID incase anyone else needs to know i just havent had the time to install it yet... busy with work . Rx8's my daily so i'd like to pamper her as much as possible.
@LM20 any idea when those photos that were taken will be posted i m anxious to see them , and i might not make it to the next meet due to work.
its tomorrow right?

Check out their website for more info ffn.smscc.org(Info for the SFV-Agoura Friday Night Road Rally)
WHO: Santa Monica Sports Car Club/SCCA.
WHAT: Monthly First Friday Niter Road Rally, a time-speed-distance navigational rally.
WHEN: Friday, January 4th. Registration opens at 7 p.m., beginners' meeting at 7:40, first car off at 8:01.
WHERE: Registration and rally start at the Bank of America rear parking lot, corner of Devonshire and Sepulveda in Mission Hills.
WHY: You love driving and the challenge of friendly competition. You want to take the first step in learning how to work with a navigator for performance rallying or "Targa"-type events. You want to experience some of the most exciting "driver's" roads in Southern California.
THIS MONTH: To start 2013 off with a bang, weve got a short, easy-to-navigate rally through Simi Valley, Newbury Park, and Thousand Oaks, finishing with a canyon run back to Agoura Hills that will include a couple of your favorite driving roads. THIS WILL BE AN IDEAL RALLY FOR FIRST-TIMERS. Also, this months rally marks the beginning of our 2013 Participation Incentive Program, in which you can earn discounted or even free rally entries details at the event (or on our website soon.)
HOW: Bring your street-legal car, a navigator, a pen, a flashlight, a watch that can be synchronized with official rally time, and $20 for entry fees ($10 for SCCA members.) We'll give you a set of route instructions. The object of the rally is to follow the instructions at assigned average speeds in order to arrive at checkpoints exactly on time (to the hundredth of a minute.) And by the way: you won't know the location of the checkpoints until you get there. And it's dark.
WHAT ELSE YOU NEED TO KNOW: It's not a race. We're sanctioned by the SCCA and run on public paved roads, so assigned speeds are within posted speed limits. BUT, the roads are usually challenging and fun to drive, and the pressure of staying on time leads to a very exciting experience. We award trophies in four classes of competition, based on equipment and experience. If you're a novice, you'll run in your own special class so you don't have to go up against the experts.
CAN I USE MY GPS? Absolutely.
IS THERE AN APP FOR THAT? Several.
SPECIALS: We award "marque" trophies on nights when we get five or more entries representing a particular make or model, so if you're part of a club or meet-up group, bring your friends...you might just get your own special class.
FOR MORE INFO: Visit ffn.smscc.org, or check out the Santa Monica Sports Car Club Facebook page. More questions? Post 'em here or PM me. Hope to see you on the 4th!
