    Although in good condition, a factory headgasket isn't really a problem.

    The 'stopper' type is most effective in sealing because it incorporates a stopper instead of a grommet or bead which can be weak over a period of time. Stopper gaskets consist of the most metal layers for the best possible seal. The 'stopper' type gasket is the most expensive of the three.
    The 'bead' type is the most popular gasket, due to its simplicity of construction. A raised bead around each combustion chamber ensures a tight seal for high-compression as well as high-boost applications. This gasket is very effective for sealing because of its flexibility. The beaded type gasket is the least expensive of the three.
    The 'grommet' type gasket is a very effective type of gasket due to the metal grommet that surrounds each combustion chamber. This metal grommet insures a tight seal between the cylinder head and the engine block. The application of grommet gaskets is limited due to the high cost of production.

    from: http://www.alamomotorsports.com/HKS/hkshead.htm

    they have listing for grommet and bead type.

    arnt they more or less what the stock gasket is. with the metal shim thingo around each cylinder?...

    I think there was a tomei one for a 1g-gteu on ebay... whole gasket kit i think it was, ended up selling for about 65GBP (about $170 plus postage). I was going to buy it, but my one is still going strong

    You can probably get one made up, not worth the effort though and the toyota ones aren't that bad.
