Timing Belt Kit
Looking to get the timing belt / water pump changed on my wife's RX330 this spring and was thinking of purchasing this kit from Rock Auto http://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo....421312&jsn=373 it includes a Hydraulic tensioner is this part necessary? Otherwise I can purchase the kit without. Your Opinions on this manufacturer Aisin?

I can't speak to the parts needed... but Aisin is a huge, well known parts supplier. They're also 30% owned by Toyota. So they've got that going for them. I'd not hesitate to use their parts.

I just replaced mine on my '06 RX330 in October, 2015:
Aisin is the OEM water pump manufacturer for the RX330, as well as a lot of other Toyota/Lexus vehicles (as previously stated).
If you get a kit without the tensioner, you can still do the job, but you'll have to compress the old tensioner. I've done it. Not that hard.
