well its not really a kit, just a belt. but most people change the water pump and the idler and tensioner bearings at the same time as they are meant to wear out soon after the timing belt is due. hence why it can usually cost a bit to change.

its easy to do though, only real tool ya need that isn't normal is the harmonic balancer puller, and they are like $20.

as for places to get it done, Hills Motor Sport, located in Castle hill, have been good for me so far. had a fare bit of work done through them in the past, rear end rebuild totally.

the guy who runs the place's name is Mark.

as for parts, Just Jap are a good place to pick up the parts, good price. bit of a distance if you don't live south of sydney, but they will deliver pretty cheap.

another good parts place is LinCorp. has all genuine nissan parts.

another place, also good for parts but can also do the work i do belive, is Stuart Wilkins Motor Sport. they are out windsor way.

if you're confident about doing this your self, do it. it'll save you alot in labour cost.

i would offer to do it for you, but im unsure when i'd have time to though.

croydon has the full kit for $260 something with a gates belt (std, not blue though). Or $290 or so for the same with a blue gates belt.

You will need a water pump from nissan too for a 100k service.

Autobarn, you serious?

I wouldn't even buy my air refreshner from there...

which is the timing belt kit that is adjustable so the timing wouldn't be so affected by the new belt?

do you mean an adjustable pulley for the exhaust camshaft?

ah yeah thats right the adjustable pulley for the camshaft, that'll be necessary when doing the timing belt replacement right? So then there'll be no slight power loss after the new belt?

you shouldnt see any loss of power by replacing the belt. An adjustable cam gear can be installed (easily) at the same time as you get the belt changed and will allow easier timing adjustment when tuning an ECU on the dyno. But it doesn't make a massive difference on its own.

    • Hey legends, first time ever installing a steering wheel LOL and I’m a little confused…. And the discussions I’ve found don’t really answer my question. im finally trying to install this nismo steering wheel that came with my car. removed OE steering wheel off my car no issues, first issue I ran into though is the Saas boss kit I got was non hi as so first Whomp whomp…. Was there any recommendations for a good boss kit? second issue I ran into was the nismo horn only has one connection on the back? this confuses me as I would think there should be two? one for positive one for earth?   Any would  be much appreciated 🙏🏽🙏🏽
    • The struggle is real with lower ratios, has cost me a fortune making my 3.5 work. Pull it apart, stuck one stub axle in a vice spline facing up, then stick the centre on. Insert the other stub axle then apply torque wrench. Report back. I suspect it's borked. The good news is they're pretty simple inside, bad news is parts for the Nismo stuff are hard to come by.
    • but, but.....toyotas are unbreakable! just ask all the fanbois down here.

    • CSV? Come on lad, I'm all about PowerBI these days. I would consider working as a PowerBI or ZOHO DataPrep consultant, but nah, I've had enough of IT. Two decades of being in somewhat in an industry I kind of just chose because I had zero guidance when I was younger.
