Default Timing Belt Change (Question)

My baby is finally reaching that 90 K mark so when I pull her out for the spring the first thing I'm gonna do is replace the timing belt. I was looking around for parts and found this:

Does this look like a decent deal or keep looking?

or

Thanks

I have no experience with the product mentioned but I would go with OEM parts to make sure I don't have to do the job twice, considering how much work is involved. Try getting the part numbers for the parts needed and going through a Toyota dealership to make it cheaper.

Im runnng a Goodyear timing belt, and a new OEM 2JZGTE waterpump.

Total cost. $75.

On my 1JZGTE. IF you change your timing belt, change your waterpump.
