              Can those of you who bought the ebay gasket set comment on the quality? I'll be doing a rebuild myself pretty soon and am looking to do it on the cheap.

              Generally I tend to prefer OEM gaskets, but not at the 280 or so I've seen them for. Hell, I think the complete gasket set for my Vr-4 was a few bucks less than that.

                the gasket kit is of decent quality, the rubber is Viton so its top quality the gasket looks just as good as the oem one.

                        oh. sounds like these may be higher quality than the felpro kit i got, the front and rear main seals just said "national" on them. lol
