Default Wrx Version 3-4 master gaskit kit vanishing hard to find

So yeah as the title says, I'm at a roadblock on my V4 ej20 rebuild i cant find a genuine master gaskit and was wondering where is eveyone getting there gasket kits from since subaru say they dont have any stocks any more and i cant call up every single subaru shop up in the world.....so i was thinking maybe there are some good aftermarket gasket kit brands out there that still have V3-4 kits available???

Can anyone help who has been in this situation please ?

I'm in somewhat the same boat. V1 Type-RA engine in my '87 EA82T chassis will need some love at some point.

Long term plan is to use S20 or OEM 2.0L heads, so that will take care of some of the consumable parts that comprise a master engine kit. I would assume the main seals and many O-rings would be interchangeable with the newer EJs.

Yeah it i think the o-rings are interchangeable....stupid on there part to change only to redesign a simple o-ring.

Yeah i dont want to change to new cylinder heads because then i will have to change the whole wireing loom...sucks to be me at the moment
