    I bought my Gates kit plus water pump, thermostat, air filter and cabin filter for about £150 from UK EBay seller doctor_car . No complaints here, although it's not doing much good sitting in a box on the garage floor...

    I got my timing belt kit and water pump from: Sparesbox | Auto Parts, Car Care and 4x4 Accessories

    I did the installation 2 weeks ago and it all fits well.

    Is that a fact? I wish I'd known that before. Always thought the BJX was a bit of an oddball

    Just ordered my Whiteline rear sway bar from these guys, $17 postage to NZ is pretty hard to complain about
