Looks like anything you can get on ebay... Ebay should be a lil cheaper ;). Are the full gasket kits sold on ebay any good? I mean, we all know NOT to use the HG they supply, but as far as every other gasket in the kit goes... Are they any good?

I got a felpro kit for 140.00 pick up in a store and could have got the same kit for125.00 on Ebay. You DON'T need to go Toyota unlesss you want to waste money. I got a metal head gasket and some of that kit was still left in the box.

The only non-Toyota gasket set I would use would be Ajusa or Ishihara-Johnson. They are the OE gasket set manufacturers for a lot of car companies. After all, do you really think that Toyota makes their own gaskets?
IIRC Ishihara-Johnson are the ones you'll get if you buy from Toyota.

::edit:: onefstsupra89: you didn't use the cork oil pan gasket did you? I really hope you didn't....

I got the Rock Ishino (I think I remember the Ishino part of the name) gasket set and it had a little card in it stating that "This is an OEM gasket set. Rock is an OEM supplier for many asian brands" in badly broken engrish. Made me feel extra confident about my purchase...

I used a Toyota OEM HG anyways; was going to no matter what gasket set I used.
