Spring motor restoration. Best gasket / Hose kits to get and where?

[SupraOfDoom]

Basically I would ideally like to replace pretty much every hose on my 7m with at the very least new rubber hoses. No more cracked rock hard hoses for me. Also I'd like to find the best quality gasket kit I can. HG is not important obviously because I'm getting a MHG. No cheap ebay shit though. I had a lot of this stuff book marked but, sadly my motherboard fried. So if you can help me find these again I would appreciate it. Thanks.

i bought mine off ebay honestly... just look at the company who makes it and if its a well known company than you will be fine.. otherwise goto toyota but you'll probably be paying twice the amount for the same companies product

as for hoses i bought mine from hightempsilicone.com they used to be a vender here but i dont know what happened to them. best hoses ive ever had (and boy are they pricey)

Toyota For Gaskets.

But the best non toyota one is stone in my opinion, hit up CK or 935.

I bought all new gaskets and hoses from Elmhurst Toyota over on SF for teh discount. All the gaskets totaled about $350 and all of the new hoses were over $450. Everything came out much cheaper than getting it from ym local dealer. I'm sure you could find cheaper products on ebau for the gaskets but finding the correct hose is fairly hard for some of them. The radiator hoses and the Air (accordian) hose probably cost $100 alone.

HoseTechniques have pretty good vacuum hoses but for radiator and larger hoses OEM is probably the way to go. Does anyone know who makes the toyota gaskets or are they manufactured by toyota themselves?
