230k mile 2jz overhaul
I recently got a 1995 sc300 with 230k miles. It was leaking coolant and oil all over. but it ran good. drove it over an hour back home. of course i want to turbo it!! so i ripped it apart got the spark plugs out and checked the compression on each cylinder. they are all good. i want to put on as many new seals and gaskets as i can. Already have arp head studs. gonna buy a TT head gasket from a Toyota dealer. i have new valve cover gaskets. Also needs an alternator. it has a new radiator and a bunch of other gaskets the pervious owner bought but never installed..
Is this a good deal???

I'm planning on replacing all those parts plus the head gasket valve cover gaskets and intake/exhaust gaskets. Do you guys suggest anything else?

I guess the real question is... Is there somewhere else I should look for parts? I wanna go with OEM genuine toyota/lexus parts. the 400 ebay waterpump/timeing belt/ seal kit looks like a good deal. any one have a better deal on a OEM TT head gasket? my buddy works at toyota and he can get it for 143...
