That will charge you and arm and a leg for them??? But yes, that would be my best guess too

Your not going to find a throttle body gasket at NAPA, AutoZone or any of those other places. It is a part that does not wear out so there is no benifit for aftermarket companies to gear up for volume production and compete against Toyota on that part.

Now brake pads, filters, CV axles, and so on are a whole different matter indeed.

Does anyone know if the stock throttle body gasket in a 2003 3.4 is a ''O'' shape or a ''D'' shape like the older 3.4 engines

I heard in 99 they changed over to the "O" design instead of the "D." So you should be good. Besides, I didnt gain any noticeable power by switching from "D" to "O."
