I have heard good things about eristic gasket sets. Along with the gasket, for extra assurance i'd use some type of gasket maker on both surfaces like permatex's "right stuff" or something like that.
looks to be the same as this one at driftmotion http://store.driftmotion.com/static/i-new7menginegasketset.php except cheaper, probably pretty good to use then
From the looks of the picture you'll need a Toyota EGR cooler plate gasket. The one that they provide is a paper type and will burn up in about 1000 miles if not sooner.
yeah, the paper gaskets in that set are junk.. like always, but the other gaskets aren't too bad.. still not a metal head gasket though lol
I would spring for toyota gaskets on anything that would be a bitch to replace, like a rear main/crank seal or oil pan. Its worth the extra money, when it means you wont have to remove a transmission to replace a seal. Odds and ends like valve cover gaskets, the kits may be worth a shot if the price is right. Worst case scenario you replace them, no big deal.
Also I feel the need to make not that this is an Eristic brand kit, not an "ebay" brand kit. Ebay never has and never will make engine gaskets. This is sold on ebay, but one can also buy an HKS, OEM toyota, exc on ebay as well. The term "ebay" means nothing in terms of quality.

Not metal
Anyway, same crappy throttlebody gasket as felpro, hell, most of the kit looks like felpro stuff (further confirming my suspicion that felpro is repackaged chinese shit and you pay out the ass for it). I had to replace the throttlebody gasket, EGR cooler gasket (oh yeah, that one is FUN with the motor in), and exhaust manifold gasket with OEM parts when I used a felpro kit. If was going to drop the cash on a gasket set, I'd go to the dealer or find the company that makes the OEM gaskets (forgot their name).
