Here are the Toyota part numbers

90341-18044 Plug Drain
90341-18032 Plug, Fill
12157-10010 Gasket

You will need 2 gaskets.

I just put these on my SC300 and they are perfect, they are made for the MK4

yeah 1 gasket for each plug. Head on over to supraforums.com and checkout the vendors there for order pricing. If you are like me and need them TODAY you can get everything for around $30 at your local Toyota dealer.

OH just so you know the new drain plug is not a Hex nut it is a 3/4" bolt.

cool, i just called the toyota today and they're claiming that out of all the toyota dealers in the U.S. only one in CA has them in stock but he's isn't sure..plus it'll take about 1 week or more if they do have it. i think he told me it was $12 for the drain plug...will check supraforums

No problem, just a bit of advice. If there is rust on the bolts spray PB Blaster a few times a few days in advance and when you put the hex wrench in there hole bag it in with a hammer to make sure it is really TIGHT.
