WTB: Open diff for NB

Edit: ended up buying ricethecliche's diff

The Tochigi-Fugi LSD in my 03 has been slowly but very loudly dying, likely the bearing for the pinion. These units are known to be problematic in general and not even that good as an LSD.

At the moment i'm just looking for an inexpensive replacement diff to get it back on the road and quiet it down, and an open diff is totally fine. My only criteria are thus;
-don't need the carrier, i can just bolt it up to the carrier i already have
-in decent condition
-preferably under 120k
-rust is alright but if there's too much it'll just be a pain to work with.
-needs to be from off a 1.8 manual
-needs to be one piece half shafts (slide-in, not bolt-in)

shoot me a PM
preferably around central MA, but i can pay shipping if you're willing to box it up and all that
