The actual timing belt costs about 200 dollars and it takes about 3.5 hours to change it. 500 dollars seems a decent price for the job. If the belt does break you'll have a very expensive bill

you can get them for about 140.00 these days...

It may be cheaper for me to buy them from Oz that in the UK
Over here it costs £79 which equates to $202
