Time to change my cambelt so I am planning to change the water pump,tensioner and idlers as well.Anyone from Auckland who can give me quote for labour as going to Toyota will be a bit expensive I guess.Getting my parts from Mr. Revhead. :)

i got toyota in new lynn to change my clutch etc and compared to a few other quotes i got they were actually reasonably priced, plus the guy who did it does most of the gt-t's that go through there so he knew what he was doing. i personally would quite happily pay a bit more for some work if i knew the guy doing it had done work on previous models of my car before. and i was very happy with the job they did...
my 2 cents
Driving a honda is like being in the special olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded...
