Polyurethane bushings (steering rack and full kit)
Just thought I'd give out a little bit of good info.
I bought Delrin bushings and I really wanted steering rack bushings, but unfortunately you can only find them as part of the full package around here. After some searching and calling I found another source for SuperPro bushings.
http://www.globalperformanceparts.com/
They sell the steering rack bushings alone for ~$30+shipping. Search part #SPF2370K (I got it from the SuperPro catalog). Global had them in stock and confirmed they were for the FD.
Also, on a side note, they sell the full kit from SuperPro KIT130ADJK $475 which has the 26 bushings with eccentric bolts too! I don't know if they have these in stock though. I would call to check.
Just thought I'd help out since I know alot of the Delrin bushing guys wanted Steering rack bushings too.

As for being the same kit. I'm pretty sure they are. You can look up all the part numbers in the SuperPro catalog. The kit lists all the parts it comes with.
http://www.fulcrumsuspensions.com.au/fulcrumCat/
Here is the list of bushings it comes with:
SPF2821K Front Control Arm Upper - Inner Bushing
SPF2822K Front Control Arm Lower - Inner Front Bushing
SPF2823K Front Control Arm Lower - Inner Rear Bushing
SPF2370K Front Steering Rack & Pinion Mount Bush - Power Steering
SPF2679K Rear Control Arm Upper - Inner Eccentric Bushing
SPF2674K Rear Differential To Cross-member Bushing
SPF2675K Rear Toe Control Arm - Inner Bushing
SPF2676K Rear Toe Control Arm - Outer Bushing
SPF2677K Rear Trailing Arm Front-To Cross-Member Bushing
It looks like it only leaves out the normal version of the Rear Control arm upper and this:
SPF2680K Rear Shock Absorber Lower Bushing
It looks like the main/only distributor for SuperPro in the US is Global according to the main website. So I'm sure you would inevitably have to purchase/make warranty claims through them.

Yes they are cheaper than the group buy. Yes they are the same kit. I have ordered them and they are the same. Great product. Mighty peculiar that they are actually cheaper to buy individually then to go through the group buy. Maybe some one is being greedy....or not getting a very good deal. Maybe we should try to set up a group buy with Global performance parts. Kind of dissapointed right now.

The steering rack bushings are $30 (including PayPal) through the GB. Glad to see that you appreciate the work I out in to make this happen for everyone. I set the GB prices lower than what was quoted from GP and during the GB their figures changed, meanwhile it was too late to completely restructure the GB pricing and send back dozens of refunds complicating matters even further. The GB was set up to help out the community, not out of greed.

You can always find something for less money if you look hard enough. What you have to ask your self is how is the reputation of the seller? There are many places that sell things dirt cheap, but I would rather pay a little more to make sure I am getting the quality product and customer service to go along with it.

And I searched out these prices when the Groupbuy would not sell the steering rack bushings separate and thats all I needed.
