Looks like it.

And yes, they do come with flywheel.

Be careful.

Looking at his feedback, he has not sold any as yet. I'd be extremely careful

For comparison, here is a picture of the pressure plate Textralia sent me as a replacement. From the looks of the e-bay pictures (and comparing it the mental pictures of the kit I bought from A&A last May) I would say 100% yes; it is the "Aussie" clutch.

But isn't the unit balanced with the flywheel? I wonder why they are selling this without the flywheel, hmm...
