Ebay Rebuilt Gaskets kit

[Lextreme II]

I had an opportunity to closely examine a set of rebuild kit from ebay. They are about 1/3 of the price of the one from Lexus, but there are few seals and O-rings missing. From my visual inspection I noticed the following parts are missing:

1. Rear Main Seal
2. Side main bolt seals (10)
3. Oil pump O-ring

The above parts will run around $130 from the Lexus dealer. As for GS400 owners please be aware that this kit does not come with Multi-Layer-Steel head gaskets. They were made of Graphite material

ive gotten a few of those kits in the past. i tend to not use the headgasket but for the other little stuff they have served me well.
