I've heard both sides of the reviews on the ebay ones. You can also go to your local toyota dealership and order one from them

DO NOT GET EBAY REBUILD KITS!!! Yes im yelling at you. I just rebuilt a 2ZZ that had one of these kits. none of the gaskets were any good. the timing cover wasnt thick enough so oil seeped past it. the head gasket wasnt MLS it was some POS single layer gasket. Please just spend the $$$ and get the OEM overhaul kit

I used it on my rebuild...some gaskets were missing and some looked like bad quality so I just bought those from the dealership or autozone


The oil pan gasket was of wrong size...

And I ruined my engine in less than 5000 miles(but that's probably something unrelated and caused by something dumb I did)
