new aftermarket distributor

[cvic98lx]

I'm planning to replace the distributor assembly on my 98LX and found a richporter technology (TD80U) online for $180. I would just like to solicit your opinion about this distributor, also when you buy a distributor assembly ,it includes the ICM, ignition coil,rotor and cap for that price right?

none probably but its cheaper. didnt think anyone would reply so I bought a richporter distributor online and installed it, ran fine for barely a month then the distributor just died while i'm on the highway. richporter tech is a canadian company but their distributors are made in Taiwan.
I bought a new distributor to replace my aging original unit because Im running close to 200K miles now.
Looking at another aftermarket brand, Cardone, I hope this is better than richporter..
