dont say tein please! lol
MazdaSpeed Shocks + RS*R Springs (Great combo) and no, it's not going to be the MS kit. It's something much better.

Insurance is covering everything! That's the best part.

If I can get the coilovers for $400 then I'll do it.

I already got the RS*R springs so that's why I'm going to buy just the MazdaSpeed shocks and they're already 75% stiffer than stock.

How bad is the damage on your car?

Body kit FTW! And since your exhaust got f'ed up, get an aftermarket one.

$850 is a bit too steep for my insurance check right now, I'll stick with the MS Shocks with my RS*R springs.

$400 + tax so that'll be a grand total of $431.00 from Tustin Mazda for all 4 shocks. That's a really good price!
MazdaTrix, finishlineperformance.com and rx7store.com charges alot more so $431 from Tustin Mazda is a great price. The best part is that they're a car dealership that doesn't jack up the prices on their parts.

I didn't know RS-R sold springs for the RX-8, I know they sell them for the RX-7. I also tried to look up on their site, and doesn't mention anything for the RX-8?!

They do sell them, just not in the US market. It was pretty hard to obtain a set from them. I also want to buy their exhaust, which is also not in the US market... JDM FTW!
Go here and you'll see the exhaust I'm talking about. No one in the USA has them right now, I'm going to be the first just like the RS*R springs!

Here's the link to the RS*R Springs:

EDIT: Here's a picture of them before I installed them.
