thanks man im gunna do all of that but go kevlar and a low temp thermostat

 

Don't forget the cam seals and the one for the oil pump if there's one. Also check to see if you have an a/c filter. If you don't put one in there. If you do, change it if its dirty. Then there's wiper blades, check your bulbs and don't forget the third brake light and reverse lights, clean and adjust the parking brake, and that should cover it.

 

How important is doing the waterpump? Would you be alright just doing the timing belt? Anyone do this?

 

If you are in there doing the timing belt, doing the water pump is HIGHLY suggested.

Since you're in there change the water pump too. Get it out of the way. If your pump starts to go after the t belt job then you have to take the t belt off again to put the pump in. Double work you know.

 

I would buy the timing belt kit from RussellM, he is a vendor on here. Buying the kit will save you money compaired to buying the parts from your local dealer.

 

Yeah i guess i better get the kit from russellM and do it right the first time :/

 

I'll be coming back to this thread when it's my turn to do the 60K service

 

You will save over $200 buying the kit from RusselM. His website is mitsubishiparts.net.

Motul fluid, although good, does not last very long as it is highly hygroscopic. A better bet is the ATE Super Racing fluid. Put it in and forget it for 2 years. ATE is asl ocheaper than the Motul 600 stuff.

 

How much is the 60K service?

 

I believe somewhere around 350-ish. I bought mine back in December, so I dont remember the exact price. It includes everything for your timing service!

 

dont skip on the timing belt/parts.my buddy was a cheap a** and did not change acouple parts,the motor was rebuild shortly there after.

 

good thread!! but i still have a long time..
