Now after speaking to my instructor @ tafe regarding the timing belts on the Magna - I've decided I wanna get it serviced now rather than later (is 91,850 ks atm).

I'm in Melbourne and was wondering if anyone here could reccomend a few places other than going back to the dealer.

Someone one here mentioned that a dealership service cost them $1250 and G-Tek in South Australia only cost $650.

Could someone point me in the right direction?

Done a bit of research:

Bursons:
Timing Belt - $74.50
Timing Belt Kit - $176.50

Repco:
Timing Belt - $107
Timing Belt Kit - $593

Mitsubishi:
Timing Belt - $170
Timing Belt Kit - Said they don't have one

And for 90,000k service inc replacing belt?
Ultra Tune: $745 - $750
Mitsubishi: $800

I'm thinking that if thats the case then I could get a mechanic to do the timing belt if i take it to him and then later on get the rest of the service done - since its just your basic fluids flush and replace, spark plugs etc.
