iTS making me sick that i buy the same rubber that play different in chinese pips, is there any short pips that plays like 802 or 802-40 in jap euro version and last 5months

Are you saying that the 802/802-40 have different playing characteristics from one sheet to the next? I haven't noticed, but it may well be so.

I have tried the Kokutaku 119 and find it is somewhere between the 802 and the Friendship 563. Looks like that is also half chinese, so you may not trust it (I have also only tried one single sheet of the 119 for a short period, so I have no knowledge of production consistency or durability).

From mentions on the web, Joola Snabb may play similarly. (Don't take my word for it though! I haven't tried it.) It also gets good marks for consistency and durability.
Fairly pricey, but if you see haggisv's surplus thread there may still be some left at a fair price, enough so you can try out.

no way dude, 802 are hozrizontal aligned and spectol is vertical

I don't know about 802-40 but I haven't find anything close to 802 for such classic short pips..

It might be different from one sheet to another though. Mine plays almost exactly like inverted which I dislike now.
