S2000 uses a Torsen Diff, MX-5 doesn't according to torsen, although Wiki says otherwise

That list possibly explains why you can use Hyundai Final Drive in an S2000.

It's a f ucking RX-7 box & diff! Many components come from other suppliers. But are modded to Honda's spec. Just like every bloody german car buys its bits from Getrag or ZF and the unreliable bits from Bosch.
Honda rarely uses components that are truly interchangeable; take the 282mm discs that don't swap between Civics & NSXs.
Also note how PCDs & spigot sizes prevent rice boys from swapping wheels over - even between an EK & an MB & a DC.

Do i suspect that it's a generic part that is fitted elsewhere in the range with an S2000 'marque' up? Yes, I do.

If a common part is shared across models it uses a single part number and the price is the same irrespective of whether you are ordering it for an NSX or a Jazz.

Got a mate who works at ZF so going to ask him if he has time to do any digging

For the front brake bits - prices are the same. I'd take Chris' word on this one.
