dont know any part No.'s man but heard that the stock gaskets arnt such a bad thing.... unless of course you want to change comp ect...
i have a HKS metal head gasket on my 4agze with a bigport head.
part number is 11116-018158a0
Its 2.0mm thick and is metal.
yeah it was a bit. but i had to get it in from japan. thats why...
its would cost the same to get your block o-ringed with a standard gasket. should have no worries then
Thickness will depend on what CR you want to run. If you're using a metal hg, it's a good idea to deck the block/head to ensure an even surface. When they do this, they shave a small amount off both the head and block... find out the exact amounts they take off and then get a hg to suit.
I'm using a HKS 1.6mm hg with 8.9cr GZE pistons but my actual cr is closer to 9.1:1 due to decking. I decided not to use the 2mm to keep better squish areas.
If you're looking for other brands, i think Cometic also have a mhg for a 4ag.
Eddie.
4agte finally finished. 252rwkw with more to come
yeah i had my block decked and head faced twice.
so with the 2.0mm it probably wont alter the comp ratio heaps

Guys if there are any 'part' related questions PM me as I work in parts for toyota and I dont mind helping out..
i got genuine TRD 3 layer metal head gaskets for $88 delivered the more i ordered the lower the price.. cheapest i could get them 4 was $66.. but sadly didn't get a chance to order them as the TRD wholesaler doesn't do TRD parts anymore! lucky i scabbed a 0.5mm and a 0.8mm one..
yes cometic do a metal HG.. i used a 1mm one in my GZE.. i'd advised against getting a maaaaassive gasket.. just so you can run big boost and a big turbo.. rather get a turbo to suit your engine biuld.. not the other way round.. having a higher static CR and mild boost will give better torque and resopnse.. just not the wank factor of put your foot down.. wait... wait.... waaaaaait... woooooah!!! boost!
