Got it done mostly. I just had my timing belt changed (1MZ-FE), and my water pump, crank and cam seals. I also had a new O2 sensor installed in bank 1 since mine was shot and causing that ever so lovely CEL thats been on since 80XXX....Person before me didn't keep up with this. 146k miles....Original T belt and Water pump, original o2 sensors. Got it all taken care of. Now whats left is the Fuel filter repair and the brakes and I'm done.

PS. If anyone in the central texas area needs a good reputable mechanic, let me know. I will give you the info. This is a great guy.

146k wow.... man you are lucky that thing didn't break. that's over 1.5 times as long as that t-belt should be on there.

Yeah, I am lucky. That sold me right there. I will buy another Toyota for sure. I'm a firm believer in taking care of vehicles so needless to say a Toyota is perfect for me. I just wish they'd bring back some V6/6spd or at least something sporty....*Sighs* I'll probably just buy a Tundra at some point.
