Hey guys, I've found alot of supertech stuff on eBay (valves, shimless buckets etc) and was justing wondering if these are a reputable brand?

They are fairly cheap so I'm unsure..

This is a huge saving over paying like $1200 for a toda shim-over-bucket kit..

Price up echo buckets from Toyota or try wreckers as the shim under buckets from them fit

Supertech gear is tops, I've already built my 20v 7a decked out in supertech valve train...building a 3 tc with supertech pistons and valves in the near future.

Ipgparts are a reliable seller, however slow on occasions :)

this.
running a full supertech valve train in my 16v, all good shit.

IPGparts, as lazy said can be a bit slow but you can ask them to fedex stuff to you, as they did for me.
also FYI their cam followers REQUIRE SHIMS UNDER THE BUCKETS. found that out the hard way even though i asked the question...
