Haha. I little thing called rust,heat, and very tight places make this job very fun!

Get new gaskets from Toyota and get ready for a lot of swearing and cuts and bruises... it's a b!t@h.

And don't forget to prime the new turbo!

The gaskets are inexpensive and the ones Aaron is selling are probably Toyota. The Toyota ones are metal and hols up better than the cheap paper ones. I think I paid about $8 for the oil feed/drain gasket from my local dealer.

I don't see the turbo to manifold gasket or the elbow gasket? Which I don't see on his site. But I would call Aaron I'm sure he has them. I think that's Jus oil line and coolant gaskets.....

Here is one with all the gaskets you'll need

I inherited a 7M gasket "collection" from a friend (you know, mechanic buys complete kit from Toyota, customer backs out, he sits on set for a couple years and passes on to another mechanic with a 7M who's already got a set who sells his MKIII the next day so he passes them on to another mechanic and so on... by the time it hit me there probably 5 of everything and more of others....). The only ones I ended up buying were the oil and coolant gaskets. Three cheers for hand-me-downs!
