    Does anyone have a preferred timing belt/water pump kit? I see a lot of them online, like a 12-15 piece replacement kit.

    As @Poccalyps mentioned, the aircabinman kit is a good one. Many here on TW have used it with good results, and the parts he includes are actually genuine parts.

    This page has a great step-by-step guide (with pics) on the upgrade, as well as links to all the parts needed (you'll need a few in addition to the kit).
