Welcome, car sounds nice. Get some pics up.
Not sure what the interval is but for all the price of a belt and if necessary a water pump and tensioner I'd get it changed for peace of mind.

will post some pics tomorrow
Belts were last done in Sept 2002 @ 81k
When shes had a seriously good valet, will look stunning
The only thing remotely unoriginal in a Janspeed rear back box so if anyone wants to swap a good OE one feel free!

will do a pic of the Janspeed tomorrow to, doesnt sound too loud, but prefer the look of the standard and the more understated sound, plus the car is soo original, it just doesnt look right (janspeed has two straight squared pipes coming out the back)
