this is everything basically, except oil pump / oil pump chain, front pieces (torrington bearings etc, another $100 or so for all that) no front cover... no wber jets for oil jets mod, no thermopellet plug, no pilot bearing and seal... but the bulk of the possible rebuild costs are there.



I basically just did this rebuild, cept I used NA S5 rotors and NA S5 end housings, and reused my eccentric shaft. I also ordered all new S5 ribbed tension bolts (almost $300 in bolts right there)



It gets expensive if you let it, I also included the hardened RB stationary gears in the order... I also had mazdatrix street port the new housings.

I stay at work all night hoping to get work done on a project and instead I just spend all night procrastinating. Sorry if I ruined your fun

You shouldn't need the eccentric shaft and most likely won't need the side housings, rotors, or gears either. There goes a large chunk of your cost.
