Hey Jono,

Would really appreciate it if you could post pictures of the timing belt change.

Even better...DIY timing belt guide

...pretty sure there are many members out there due for a major service soon and a DIY guide would assist heaps & save $$$!

Jono... hows the whole process going man? Still waiting for ya parts?

Yang i would also like to know what belt is for the GR.

So basically your looking at
Timing belt (gates t987mivec) (gr ????)
1 X timing belt tensioner pulley
1 X timing belt idler pulley
1 x water pump

Now aparently theres only only two pulleys but in every pic i have found there is three. I would really like to confirm this..... anyone?

Then theres also the p/s and a/c belt but only need to replace if necessary (cracked and sh*t).

Now if you are doing, i would highly recommending replacing the seals as well.
