Just the molding used and the rotor is an all-in-one peice design (the part that broke on mine and many other Optis).

Just looks to be a cap and rotor replacement. Obviously for those who are anti opti this wont change anything..but when the GFs Opti need its 100,000 mile rebuild I will be getting one of these kits for it.

Off subject, but I guess you heard about MSD buying out Superchips Inc?

Sweet. The GFs 96 Z had 85K on it so I figure opti time will be sometime this spring. Might as well get it done early.
