    Chopper, sounds like you've got everything covered. I followed Bart's (nfpgasmask) write up on replacing the timing belt, and like him (and you it seems) I went with all OEM parts. If you look at the write up it will tell you everything that you need to replace (I did the radiator hoses too). The only other thing that I did during the timing belt replacement was to replace the spark plugs too. Of course mine where the original plugs and the VX had 95,000 miles on it so I figured it was time.

    Also there is a good write up that Kenny did on replacing the front rotors and repacking the bearings. There is also some good instructions over on the Planet too. http://www.planetisuzoo.com/articles...Bearing_Repack

    That's everything I could think of. I wanted to get everything at one time from Merlin. Plus...it's all still easy to get. In a few years..maybe not so much. I figure the car will be another 10 years before I need to do this again
