Galen Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Headgasket needs doing on the Glanza. Currently runs 1bar td04 on standard engine.Will probably do some headwork and get bigger injectors and maybe go to 1.2barWhat sort of headgasket should I get, what does anyone recommend?Thanks Quote
funny onion Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 I personally would stick with a toyota one. OEM ftw... Unless you're trying to lower compression a bit or the head has been skimmed a few times then use a thicker athena (or other aftermarket one). That's just me though.... Quote
AdamB Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Cruise/Zep gasket, depending on if the head has been skimmed before or how much gets taken off then 1.2mm-1.4mm will suffice. Quote
Galen Posted December 2, 2015 Author Posted December 2, 2015 (edited) As far as I know this will be the first time the head has been off so everything should be as standard.Whats standard thickness gasket and what advantage is there to changing that, I know it changes compression but how does that affect things like lag or just how the engine performs?

AdamB Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Standard gasket is 1mm compressed I think. You'll get a bit more lag with thicker gasket, but if you plan on increasing boost on OEM motor it'll make it that little bit more reliable. Quote
5e colin Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 oem toyo gasket at that boost level there super strong last forever and seal perfect thats just my 2c Quote
