Sad to hear of the hassle Furai, but hopefully BRM will have what you need.
All I thought when I read your fist post was "I am sure it died a noble death"

Lies!
Diff spotters guide: 4 ears with studs on the stub axles. They stopped using stub axles toward the end of the 1995 model year, so it's a 1994-1995 1.8 diff -- either open or Torsen
