I've also had my share of badluck with those (2 died within 1000km).

I'm wondering....has anyone tried rebuilding a OEM/Fake unit, which brands to pick for the coil, module, bearings etc?
The one currently on my civic is an aftermarket case & shaft/bearing, with all oem guts inside of it & on it. So far no issues, but my biggest concern is the quality of the bearing used on the rotor shaft.

****. I just hucked one out in the trash the weekend. Might have to dig it back out.

Fortunately I tossed it in a trash bag with some grass clippings. Nothing nasty.
