ITM gasket kit
hello all. was just curious if anyone here had any feedback on the ITM external gasket kits for these cars. just transferring over parts to a short block. the kit sells for 1-150$ on ebay. a little less than half the cost of oe. looking for opinions from people with actual firsthand experience with them.
as always, much appreciated

Post a link to that set.
I found one pic on Ebay that had a head gasket in it and said it was for a Rx7.It had the waterpump gaskets in it too!

if it's a non turbo install gasket set you need... i have a few for S5 also but for a few bucks more. also can order and sell the other misc gaskets like water pump housing to block.

i was under the impression that the pic they had up was just a generic gasket kit pic. and that's why they had the head gasket in there. i emailed them asking details on what all was included in the kit since that is not disclosed either. haven't gotten back yet.
thing that really threw me off though is that the ad states compatible for NA and turbo models.
i dunno. checked out reviews from other forums about ITM kits from other vehicles and really didn't find anyone with much bad to say about them. guess i'll just wait to see if they get back to me via email.
and thank you rotaryevolution. but car is s4 t2.
edit: just checked email. they said it's not even available. guess you were right, RE.

problem is there is only 3-4 manufacturers for gaskets for these engines and i have never heard of this company before. it is very doubtful that they would start producing gaskets this late in the game, way beyond the hayday of these cars.
most of the turbo gaskets are reusable if they aren't beat to hell. the intake gaskets and water pump gaskets are reasonably priced even if you buy them induvidually.
