Hi 6gc members. So my car is at 190K miles and I bought it around 170K miles. I will need to drive it about 1000 miles round trip at least once a month (Sacramento to San Diego). I am unsure when the owner have changed the timing belt, so I plan on doing that now. I plan using a AISIN kit from Rock Auto and was wondering what should I change while I'm at it? Would this be a good kit? I plan on keeping this car as long as I can. I know there are already some forums out there, but I would like some more assistance. I have read on some forums say that I should do the oil pump and oil pump seal. Then some other forums saying I should only do the seal. What do you guys think? Are there any other seals that I should change to prevent oil leaks? The car seems to leak a little oil but I am unsure where its coming from. The leak is so small that there isnt even any oil spots on my driveway, but there is just like a tiny drop ready fall on the oil pain. Any help is appreciated, Thank you.
AISIN kit includes the following components: AISIN Water Pump Koyo Idler Bearing Koyo Tensioner Bearing Mitsuboshi Timing Belt Water Pump Gaskets & O-Rings |

You should be fine. I drive to SD once a month for the past 3 years. Bought mine at 205K now at 273K. So far, the only thing that went out on me while driving was the alternator. I was in Oceanside when that happened and in the middle of the night.
I replaced my timing belt a year after i bought the car. -------------------- God made man....
