Default Head gasket kit & Timing belt kit

Sorry if this is in the wrong section of the forums guys but basically im looking for those two kits.I live in the North East so if there are any decent places round my way to get them or order online which ever will be easier and im lookingh for reasonable prices.

Also i will be taking the engine out so is there anything else I should be replacing while it's out? Im not looking for anything major like forged pistons just little things like important seals or bearings. My car is a P reg Impreza WRX import.

Thanks, Den

Give mark a call at lateral performance. He keeps all these bits on the shelf and will give you a full list of all gaskets and seals neede for a rebuild.I use him every time.

Thanks lads I've sent an email to mark@lateralperformance just waiting for a reply now and I'm on a tight budget but if I was to do the crank bearings would it be worth getting the crank skimmed aswell?

Ah right I've just noticed I didn't explain why its coming out. Basically there's water in my oil or oil in my water which ever way you want to put it. Once the engine is running it idles very rough at about 500 rpm when warmed up and water is pouring out some where like a tap but can't get a proper look till I get it jacked up. Wether its the head gasket or not I'll still be changing it and the timing belt while its out.

I would first check where is that water coming out.I doubt that is head gasket related.
