Default Plastic reel parts? What are some without?

Hey guys! I getting a new reel sometime at the end of this year, and wanna get one WITHOUT plastic parts. I freaking hate these things. All my bait casters to date have had them. For the first 6-7 mouths they work fine, but after, they start having problems, grinding, loss of smoothness, all that bad stuff! This next reel I wanna get a one without plastic parts. Right now I'm looking at the Abu SX, and the Daiwa advantage HSTA. Do these have plastic parts? If so, could you recommend some reels that don't have any and that are moderately priced (150-100) I don't mind plastic parts like this one, it's just the plastic gears and bearing I hate! I would guess that shimano and Daiwa don't have them, but how about Abu's and others? Also while we're at it, wanna recommend a cheep good rod to go with it? I wanna stay under 220 for the whole combo.

Thanks a lot!
