bump for you as i'm almost in the SAME boat considering the SAME parts. from my research and what i've read/been told, the ebay kits may or may not work for you. the key will be getting the correct bearings which the ACL bearings may or may not work for you/me... it all depends on the bearings for the crank you have and the codes for the bearings are supposedly stamped on the block. also, there's mixed reviews on the different gaskets included in these kits. after all the research i've done, i'm leaning more towards a Honda OEM gasket kit instead and getting ACL bearings (if they work for me) or getting honda oem bearings. GL and PM me if you have any questions about what i said.... i'm considering almost the SAME parts you are!

I'd stay away from the GMB water pump and the no name oil pump. The eristic gasket set, rings and ACL bearings are okay, I would get the HG, water pump, timing belt and oil pump from here: http://www.hondapartsunlimited.com

i just bought my blox b's today off ebay and paid for them already (only 300)
and my itr pistons are on the way

the kits on ebay look complete but im just wondering if everything is interchangable because i want to buy a type r kit for the new piston rings and hope the bearings will work for a gsr??

thanks again all-mtr-teg and jomama for both of your help

What''s your experience with GMB? Two of my new oem Honda water failed on me, replaced with GMB (with discount from work) worked out great.
