So you think my local Toyota dealer can get me this part?
They only have the European parts cataloge. It's a pain in the ass to get j-spec parts there.

Cometic makes a great gasket. you can have them make ANY combination of materials into a gasket. are they as good? sure.

if you're looking for something thinner why wouldn't you just get a 7afe MLS hg?

are the trd's composite?

To the OP: the HG is the same pattern on all 16V 4age's
