Yes the upgrade kit is to convert the basic EQ6 into the Synscan goto version. You get replacement motors, a new panel on the mount and a Synscan hand controller in the kit. I've ordered mine from Star Optics.

Don't know if the grease/bearing issues have changed on the new models - there are quite a few websites that discuss how to re-grease and what size SKF bearings to get.
