Upgrading/replacing parts in an APS M4

    I'm planning on getting a few parts for my APS M4 off airsoftclub.com as part of a bigger order. I just need a few questions answered about the products I'm looking at, thanks for any help in advance.

    Firstly, I want to get a new guarder silicon clear hop up rubber as I have heard that they work well with my AEG and are a good upgrade to it's performance. What I'm wondering is if this item is the same as the guarder silicon clear hop up rubbers for sale in Ireland at 15 euro?

    Secondly, the hopup unit has stopped working in my AEG. No matter what way you adjust the dial nothing happens, so I was looking at getting this G&P metal hop up unit. Could someone tell me if this is a good, reliable hop up unit and if it's compatible with my AEG?

    Finally, I was looking at replacing the stock non-metal bushings with these 7mm metal ball bearing bushings. I was wondering if a 7mm bushing is the right size for the APS gearbox? And if these are a good choice to replace the stock bushings?

    I've been airsofting with about 8 months now and I'm still learning. This is the first time that I'll buy internal parts for an AEG so I'm only trying to find what sounds best from what I've heard from other airsofters I know and here on boards.ie. Once again, thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

    Guarder hop, is the same.
    G&P chamber - epic.
    Element bearings - not too bad, KA or G&P are better.

    Thanks. So will the G&P unit fit and work no problem?

    There is really only element bearings there. The only other ones are 6mm G&P and I don't think they'll fit.
