Yeah, I saw the ebay ad and thought it looked the same. When I noticed Newkid had bought it I double checked my pics. Identical. Like you say, probably same manufacturer and different spec. Bargain then!

Good note on the 'pilot bearing' as there is a note on the JUN item for that too which had me puzzled. I was hoping it would make sense when I pop the old one off. Got it now. :wink: 8-)

Yea seems even more a bargain now. Note was with these as well about pilot bearing. Guy did us a great price for both shipped to one address plus no customs to worry about :lol:

Got this off @m@dds, thanks again bud for the quick delivery.

Gearbox should be off getting the parts fitted this week as my synrotech gearbox seals should arrive today from Tegiwa

Here's a list of all parts that's/being fitted replaced, aiming for end off April as there's quite a bit to do.

Greddy timing and balance belts
Manual tensioner conversion
Pipercross panel filter, cheers to @indigolemon for this
NGK platinum plugs
Blox triple cam seal @vanzep
Hamp shortie
Type-s cams
Blueprint rocker cover gasket
OEM spark plug seals
OEM crank seal
OEM cam seals
OEM balance shaft seal
OEM sump gasket seal
OEM distributor seal
OEM balance shaft retainer kit
Blueprint waterpump
2 litres of torco mtf for gearbox breaking

New gearbox
Kaiten flywheel
ATR clutch kit
Mfactory sump/engine magnetic plugs

Think the only things I need now are

Another 4 litres torco mtf
Engine oil
Fuel filter
New coolant

Do I go with the ARP flywheel/pressure plate bolts or reuse the OEM ones?

Over the summer I'll hopefully fit the traction bar/poly bushes along with the brake lines and ATR front calipers.

Also have lined up wings west sides/rear lip from @mercutio which I best get saving up for before he sells them as this is part of next years bodywork changes.

@merlin from mfactory
RECOMMENDED FLUID: When ordering your MFactory Helical LSD, we highly recommend that you order our Torco Manual Transmission Fluid (MTF) at the same time. For your convenience, we offer Half Cases (6 x 1ltr Bottles) which is sufficient for the initial break-in period of your new transmission component(s) (approx. 1 tank of gas) and the subsequent fluid flush. DO NOT use Gear Oil in your Honda Transmission. Doing so will cause more damage than good, especially the expensive Synthetic/Performance Gear Oils.

RECOMMENDED BEARINGS: When ordering your MFactory Helical LSD, we highly recommend that you order new Diff Bearings at the same time. All of the bearings that we supply are high quality OEM replacement Japanese Bearings. Prices are Per Pair.

Does your diff have a funny break in procedure? I wouldn't have thought it did. Even with the Kaaz you only need 4L for a break-in and a full refill. The Kaaz dumps a load of the diff clutch plate material in the fluid that needs swapped out immediately.
