At that price I would order two sets to keep one set spare
And I know there will be import tax and VAT to add, but the set is still gonna be miles cheaper than I can find it in the UK. _________________ Located near Liverpool.

Have you got a Brown Brothers near to you? After I'd got mine (from the Gasket Shop) I found that BBs could get them

I just did a google search for 'brown brothers', I assume you are referring to the mazda dealerships as there are loads of butchers and stuff too No Brown Bros were a fecking brill automotive factors near here. They have a few dotted around the country side
Non near me anyway, the nearest scooby dealer is Manchester I think, now that the widnes one closed down.
ring them. My local Scooby dealer was an arse (Waldren Way -Maidstone) after Gary left - he was proper interested in conversions. He'd helped a bloke do a Scooby into a gyro - missed the geezer by about 5 mins apparently.
Gary's replacement wanted to know chassis numbers etc (kin anal and couldn't be bothered). Anyway I faxed a photo copy of my gaskets to the Tonbridge Scooby dealers (with bore sizes marked) and he couldn't be more helpful
Ebay and the gasket shop have the EJ20 sets but few places seem to stock the EJ25(sohc) sets, that's why I was asking about the ones in the link.
so do you think they are worth a punt?
You maybe better asking/or lurking on Scooby.net
