Thumbs up Tomei headgasket

First off those things aren't cheap at all. I had orignally bought a Power Enterprise Heavy Metal headgasket but sold it to a friend who was in serious need at the time. I sold it to him for exactly what I paid for it a couple weeks before.
I ended up giving Tomei a try because I was having trouble getting Power Enterprise to confirm that they could ship out a 1.2mm gasket ASAP. To Tomei's credit I ordered it yesterday and it arrived today. Can't beat that kind of prompt service. I had thought I would get it on Wed or Thur but it arrived today about 30min ago. Must say it looks fairly impressive but the real reviews will come with time and boost. So I'd have to give Tomei a huge thumbs up for this one. Definately worth the 24,000Yen I paid.

until I noticed that you are from Japan...I was about top pull the BS flag on you...overnight delivery, huh...thats fast ...hope it works well for you. I ended up just going with the GRex 1.2 mm one...its going on the S15 SR tomorrow, and my swap will be complete in a week or two. Then I will give a review of the GRex and how it hold the boost...cost $220 USD.

Ahhh GREX or TRUST or GREDDY depending on what label is on it. Not a bad company at all. I've got more then a few of their parts on my car right now. The only thing NISMO is the diffs. Everything else is a collection of JUN, Tomei, TRUST/GREX/GREDDY, HKS, Bride, Kakimoto. What sucked was having to open up the new motor so I could measure the bearing caps for the crank so I could order new aftermarket units from Power Enterprise.
