Well i guess its time to replace the timming belt. As for the adjustable intake gear, it looks like it's a waste of money from talking with some of the zx2 owners that have one.

I did have my waterpump replaced about 20,000
miles ago so thanks for the offer baco99.

So has anyone replaced the belt themselves?
If not how much were you charged?
