1994 Z32 Timing Belt System Question (New to Z32s)

Hey guys, thank you for this forum. I'm only slightly familiar with he VG30 as I had a 1987 200SX V6. I just recently scored a 1994 Z32 2 seater NA Auto which I've wanted forever. Only thing is there are no records of timing belt/timing system or water pump replacemnts. It runs FANTASTIC, and I want to keep it that way.

The timing cover bolts are rusted to hell. Is that typical or does that mean that somehow the original timing belt survived 182,000 miles?

I found this kit, 120K mile kit (because 60K is just too short). Base price is around $500, but when you pick the better options it's more like $800. Does anyone have any advice? I don't want to lose this car, it's in such great shape and runs so damn well. Here's the link, you have to select the Nissan OEM stuff and the 'Power Enterprise Blue Belt' to get up to the around $800 mark. I'm serious about keeping this car FOREVER. Any advice? Thanks guys.

Link to the kit I'm looking at:

Thanks again!!!!!!!!!

Use factory nissan parts, dont buy the extra expensieve belt. IMHO it's no better than the nissan for a non turbo car. If you don't know the history of the car do the 120K. I doublt it made it 182k but I guess its possible. Depending on what state you live in and what your long term goals with the car are when you pull the plenum there are a lot of things in there you just dont really need. This is a great how to site: Robo
Hope that helps!
