part you will need;
gates timing belt 40 bucks
idler pulley 30bucks
tensiner pulley 30 bucks
Water pump 30-50 bucks
what year car go you have because some earlier models have diffrent tensioner types.[/quote]
I couldnt find these parts for my car - tensiner pulley, idler pulley does that mean since I have a 2ga these parts are not on my car? and do the brands matter much for the water pump?

Its supposed to be changed every 60k miles so if its never been done your way overdue  but if it was done at 60k than you should do it again at 120k _________________99 GSX - 296.5 AWHP

I bought my car with 155000 miles I have no idea when it was done last but I would rather be safe than sorry cause if you wait till its too late it can be pretty pricey
