Air filter
Change the oil
Did you do the 60K timing belt service (replacement). If not, you need to do that too.
Top off the fluids, i.e. Windshield washer fluid, brake fluid, clutch fluid (if you're manual)
Can't think of anything else at the moment.

No way, I always wondered where to buy ARK pulleys...:confused:
Yeah, those belts, though you should check them to make sure they aren't frayed, are not the major concern.
Take your car to the dealer, they'll tell you what the Timing Belt/Chain service is and how much it costs. I personally wouldn't do mine, but if you think you can handle it, then go ahead. It's work the couple hundred bucks to have the dealer do it and all the other little things that go with it.

actually next timing belt service I will be doing, it's pretty easy, my buddy showed me how to set your timing, no need to mark anything anywhere, it's all on the block.

On the Beta II non-CVVT = EASY
Beta II CVVT = you bet your a$$ I'll be going to the dealer. Setting timing on a CVVT motor, I'd rather wrestle gator with my legs and arms tied behind my back.

Felix. I think the CVVT motor is different. I don't think it has the markings on the head.

My top timing cover is off, and has been for a long while. I haven't seen any markings on the head, but that doesn't mean they aren't there.
