Hmm, I've been offered a fidanza flywheel, 4.4 FD parts and LSD for £450. Doesn't sound bad then? As I know my box is good, may be safer to convert mine

There is a difference in the mounting points for b series flywheels(the dowels that centre the pressure plate)
A buddy had this issue with a TTV flywheel that had to be sent back as it didn't match his clutch.

Yeah they should be, I have a B16B clutch on my B16A2. Shouldn't make a difference. Rob's right that the only difference is between cable and hydro.
Jesse's mate is the first I've heard of it not matching, may have been a manufacturing error?

He's a member on here, Gavin with the b18c metro?
He got hold of TTV and they said they've had it before and just him out the correct one. Was a tiny bit out like 1mm.
It's probably the combo of the clutch he's using and the flywheel, hense it being quite rare to hear of. Like you I'd never heard of it before either.

I've been inside plenty of R boxes but tbh I've no idea what "twin syncros" look like lol just looked like a normal gearbox to me tbh

I hear what your saying mate , but the question was are they the same !
And clearly they differ from b16b s4c lsd to say standard s4c from sir , different yes but not a hell of a lot to ask crazy money for , so we take your opinion over what honda says is in their box ? Why would honda list that in the spec if wrong and pissing away all credibility in the process ? So I think you comment was a bit harsh, in saying you hear all kinds of crap !
Don't take this personally bud , but the boxes are different which is fact .

Lee my exasperation wasnt at you, rather the internet as a source of misinformation. I hadnt read the first page. Things get crystalised into fact when they are simply not true. On my old skyline club people were getting pushed into 300quid splitfire coils when all they needed was to gap their sparkplugs etc.
On boxes: Some have an lsd, and there are different ratios; but that seems to be where the differences end.
Three key points:-
* The 4.7fd is actually 4.8
* The dual synchros upwards of 2nd exist only as aftermarket offerings (this is fact!)
* Non-lsd versions of the b16 hydro gearbox are not 4.4fd, but rather 4.3fd.
