Psarc with same files and compression are different sizes

i replaced the original with the same contents but re-compressed, same compression type etc, i verified both psarcs, and they have the exact same contents with same internal file sizes and compression, yet the re compressed one is 20kb larger, and looks different in hex editor, anyone know why?
this causes resistance 3 to load infinatly

any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Original: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0ByFI1 ... VFzNGoza2s

repack: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0ByFI1 ... EtFNGp4azQ

list of contents fro both original and repack are exactly the same:
the only change i can find is when i dump the psarc's:

/built/levels/haven_town_center/aa_training_to_diner/instances.lua.trimmed os=15926 cs=4567 fb=7658
/built/levels/haven_town_center/aa_training_to_diner/instances.lua.trimmed os=15926 cs=4567 fb=7659

a few of them have different "fb" but i dk what that is or how to fix it
