i normally get my stuff of ebay. with out the water pump. your looking at 200 if 97on
thats with a gates belt to

for the early classic 140, but you will need a tentioner to.
then around 60 for the water pump
the early classic tentioner 90

then you have the alternator belt & aircon belts

if he knows what hes doing, he'll be fine.
as long as the parts are as is.

theres only really 2 companys that do belts thats: gates & dayco
the subarus are the easyest cars i've ever done. every thing inc the belts are marked up.
even the tentioners are automatic ajusting. unlike most cars
