So you just need 1 housing and 1 rotor, right? Make sure to check the water seal grooves for any signs of cracks or warpage. The area near the spark plug holes gets very hot. Have fun cleaning off all of that crud.

New rotor housings would be a good idea. How bad are the grooves in the side housing?

That looks like a bloody crime scene from CSI or something, lol...can't wait for mine



Hopefully, being that mines a Jspec w/ "low mileage" it won't be as bad. Keep us posted...
