Default Bite the Bullet??

I was gonna wait until the warranty ran out next summer to do the timing belt, but ECS has a complete kit on sale for $345 that includes everything listed.[*]Timing Belt[*]OE UpdatedTensioner[*]OE Tensioner Roller[*]OE Idler Roller[*]Hepu OE Water Pump With gasket[*]OE Thermostat with O-ring[*]A/C Belt[*]P/S Belt[*]Alternator Belt[*]ECS Lightweight Crank Pulley

I'm starting to consider just going ahead and getting it over with. What do you guys think??

The car's got 68k miles on it, by the way.

don't get the lightweight crank pulley. it is a waste of money. you wont notice a difference, and it has been known to cause problems. or at least believed to be the culprit. basically our engines are internally balanced. and lessening the weight off of that part of the crank is believed to throw the engine out of balance..

this is the kit i got---->http://www.purems.com/products/product.php/II=1151. around $280 out the door and it has everything you'll need

make sure you click on the dialog box and select the complete kit. which add's ~$86

Thanks for that link, man. I'll probably go ahead and order that oneand get it done before it's winter. Looks like it's a pretty good kit.
