Ok, so I have posted a lot about my HG problems. And the car is in the shop at the moment getting the HG done. I bought a complete gasket kit for my car. 7MGE kit. I bought it online from a company. The shop called me today and said that they had everything ready and they went to put on the new HG and it doesnt fit properly!! They said that each hole is about 1/16 of an inch off. I dont understand why it doesnt fit. The 7MGE and the 7MGTE HGs are the same right? So I couldnt have the wrong one....I called the place that I purchased it from and they said that it should fit perfect. And said they have sold hundreds of those kits and there has never been a problem like this. They advised me to take pics at the shop and email them the pics so they can look at it.

Aside from that, what should I do? or what could be the possible problem of it not fitting? Bad machining? or what?? Im really pissed off right now lol. I havent had my car for so long!
