Looking for a good quality timing belt kit

I need to replace my timing belt, etc on my '91 Camry 3SFE. Are the parts shown in this ad good quality?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Fits-...Q5fAccessories

Does anyone know if Aisin the OEM for the water and oil pumps?

I've got some pretty significant leaks coming from the front of the engine and want to take care of all the "might as wells" while I have the front of the engine exposed. I'm trying to decide if I should plan on just replacing the oil pump gasket, o-ring and shaft seal or the whole pump. The engine has 210K. I'm the original owner and have always changed the oil/filter every 3-5K.

Thanks - Paul

If you can measure the oil pressure, find out if its ok (it must make a minimum of at least 10 psi for every 1,000 rpm in other words, at idle you need a minimum of 10 psi, at 2,000 rpm 20 psi, and so on, to a maximum of about 40 or 50 at which point the relief valve opens).
If the pressure is good, i wouldnt change the oil pump, there's no reason! It lives bathed in oil after all, if its making pressure, and its not too much work to change all the seals like needing a hydraulic press or something, i'd just do the seal change.

(And If your oil pressure does turn out to be too low, chances are the main and rod bearings are worn too so no point in changing the oil pump then either.)

The kit is missing the Oil pump seal and O ring. Unless there is some kind of damage to the pump, that's all I'd replace. Otherwise, the kit doesn't look half bad. Im an OEM kind of guy myself, but that's just me.

I have the gates kit with water pump on my car for about 10k and seems fine. Replacing pump is a real joy, especially if your exhaust is rusty. If you do replace the oil pump, do not forget the gasket that attaches the pickup screan to the oil pump. Recommend just replacing pump oring. Also, recommend inspecting spark plug tubes for oil. If there is oil, I would recommend doing that at this time aswell. Aisin is OEM

Cam Seal
Crank Seal
Oil pump seal
Water pump
timing belt
Accessory belts
Loc-tite for pulley bolts

Valve cover gasket
Tube Sealer
