This is a real long shot, but worth a go.....

Does anyone have a spare set of metal (cometic) head gaskets and ARP head bolts that they are willing to sell? I'm having some real drama's getting some, and Toyota don't even have any standard head bolts in Australia.

A real basic job is becoming an absolute nightmare.....

Thanks

Mate SPeak to the Crew at Toyota in Elmhurst in USA...

They ship brand new coil packs in 4-5 working days to us in NSW... SO they will probably be able to do the same for Headbolts and Gaskets!

And will be cheaper too! My mate as Castle Hill toyota could do the Coil packs for $125 each.. He showed me on his screen, they cost him $110 each + gst.....

Guys got these landed for $510 ( opposed to $750) inc postage from USA within 4 days!

A private seller off a certain US Toyota/Lexus V8 forum.....

Random Chance

But seriously just good luck I think. The seller was an absolute champion for getting them in the mail the way he did.
