where to get throttle body gasket

[Insidious Surmiser]

more info on this gasket material... is it pretty good or is it crap?? i looked in advance and i wasn't able to find any

go to auto zone... it's a piece of steel sanwitched by some kind of rubber/cardboard-like compound

Oh man! Those cuts of gaskets are awesome! As long as you have a steady hand and a razor blade, you can use that stuff. On my 60-1, It was 3AM and didn't have a gasket for coolant inlets to my turbo so I had a square cut gasket piece, cut it to shape, used a paper hole puncher to make the circles where the coolant flew through, and I've never had any problems with it since. There are several other places that I've used that gasket stuff before...works some wonders as long as you do it right.

And as Jon said, Napa has them as basically OEM Japan made gaskets.
^^Do that. :icon_razz

lol...I tried to do that with my turbo oil lines...just a word of warning, don't use any FIPG...:nono:...within two weeks my Turbo was dead...what a noob.

I guess it depends where you live. I can get it in a day here from my dealer in California.

Because sometimes people dont' like waiting 3 weeks for a genuine toyota part.

lol...I guess it could work, I just put way too much FIPG, it clogged the oil inlet, and was blown into the turbo's bearings.:icon_mad:
