>> you guys are so awesome

I have a link where you can get the HKS head gaskets for $95 + shipping. and I think the company is in Cali so you won't have any trouble there. I am at school right now though... I will try to post it up tonight. The only thing is that ALL HKS gaskets are for 82mm bore. Now, they are fine to use on the 81mm, it will just Marginally drop the compression... basically not even enough to measure though. It will be a boosing machine with all the parts we have mentioned. Shame you can't habve the rods re-worked before the install. >>>>>>

awesome, so "project 4agze pistons" is scheduled for sunday. its going to be a one day project, since i absolutely have no other time to do it. so bryan, u still feel up to it? we are getting a 2mm head gasket right? and do u know how to rework the rod deal with the pins? hopefully the headgasket we get will be the right one. thats pretty much my only concern right now (well besides the rods). i wont be pushing past 9 psi, so everything should be kosher, right guys??

keep feeding me input, everyone >>

p.s.- this will make a great addition to the search function for anyone looking this up in the future, since i couldn't really find anything prior. >>

yeah im game... today ill call for the parts from toyota...

ok well if we cant get the proper 2mm head gasket to lower the cr for the 4agze pistons, id rather just replace the stock piston rings for now. that way its not such a huge hassle.

http://nipponpower.com/engine/gasket/cometic_hp.html this is a nippon power head gasket. they make one in 81mm. The thickness I have not computed though

I am looking for the HKS as I type

lol.. I don't know anything about copper head gaskets. but hey, if the price is right...

ok lets go with the copper 2.4mm thick(.093") 7afe headgasket, but their bore size is 84mm. so itll have to be special ordered for 81mm bore size. does that sound about right?? this should be perfect for the 4agze pistons, correct??

sounds good to me. Should be one hell of a set up. If you coudld do something with the rods you could about run 12psi like I once wanted. >> Either way 8-9 will be hella nice.

I wount suggestr you going more then 2mm. 9:1 CR is practicly perfect for turbo aplication. 2.4mm i can tell how much CR will be dropes, but it will be below 9 for sure... Go with 2 mm atleast...
