Default Diff blow... how much to replace?

Hey i was just wondering i see all these threads with peoples diff being blown on s2ki. But all of them seemed to be or most covered under waranty. If it was not under waranty how much would it cost to replace the diff? If it is cheaper how much would an aftermarket be. Please include the price of labor. I really do not like posting on s2ki since most of the people on there are jerks. Please help honda tech peeps.

their is no aftermarket solution right now. if it blows you need an oem diff untill the new diff solutions come out. I know its a nice amount of $ to replace, but i forget how much exact so i wont post a #...

I sent him a PM and I have not had a answer. I told him it came off of my car and it works, no noise! The only thing that I dont like is that I dont trust the LSD its self. I will let it go chep. Just to let the one guy know. The stock diff is about $4200-4800. Just depends on what dealer you go to

If you can get a "good" diff on ebay for $200 let me know. I will buy all of them and sell them to the junk yards for $500 or more. I know the owner of All Forg. car parts and he wanted $1500 for the diff, I paid $750
