Need advice: looking for a full engine gasket set

[cj]

Not sure if this is the right place to post the question, but anyway...

I see a lot of ENGINE GASKET SETS on the market, but i can't simply compare them from the pics. I was going to order original set from Toyota, but it seems a little overpriced - 240 euro from the local dealer. Is it worth the money or should i get something cheaper? I'm basically looking for all gaskets, except the the headgasket, bacause I already have prepared a multi-layer steel one.

Here is a link to my project: http://www.aeu86.org/viewtopic.php?t=3632&highlight=

So any suggestions for a good gasket kit is greatly appreciated?

I bought a "TGI" -brand gasket kit for my 4A-GE and so far I've found it to be pretty decent. The crankshaft oil seals, for example, are identical to the OEM ones, as well as the camshaft seals. On the other hand, the intake- and exhaust manifold gaskets were some paper-like material so they were a bit of a letdown. Still, the set cost 120eur so it was a fair bit cheaper than the OEM one and I'd believe that it does its job just as well.

I always get Japanese stuff, but not OE Toyota. Most of it comes from the same factory, so why should I pay more... even if it's not the same factory, as long as it's Japanese.

One thing I always buy from Toyota is the oil filter. It's the best.

the most important is the head gasket. Either being trd or toyota those are the best. The rest aren't so interesting. as far as i know!

I already have Cometic MLS Headgasket. I'm interested in the quality of the rest...
