Timing Belt Queries, suppliers, parts, cam seals etc.

Recommended Posts

Looking to do the timing belt on my 06 2.0 NA Legacy Wagon near Christmas, so getting pieces ready for it now.

 

Just looking at parts suppliers currently, and first query is with Partsouq, wanting to get genuine parts as plan to keep the car, but Partsouq don't seem to sell either the waterpump or the timing belt? All other items are ok from there though and keenly priced. If they can't supply them, then where else is good to look? Obviously genuine might be dealer only so will contact them soon, but a decent Gates belt or similar would also be ok. 

 

And I've seen the Gates kits come with the cam and crank seals, my car has done 200,000KM and not sure if they've been done before, but doesn't look like they are leaking now, worth doing as preventative maintenance, or just leave it if they are fine? One of those jobs that once you are in there you might as well sort of thing, but one of the online guides/Youtube make much mention of doing them at all which I thought was odd. 

 

Have seen on the back of the passenger side cam there is a foam O-ring seal, and mine is worn and loose, so will replace that, and the diagrams on Partsouq show some other foam gasket seals around the plastic covers, again worth replacing, thinking if they are slightly misted with oil then a cam seal might need to be done too...

 

Cheers!

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
