The timing belt was done 50,000kms ago, so it's probably due? I'm no expert on these things, I let the mechanic tell me this stuff. And I had that same thought on the subject of safety, the Jimny does look like it's made out of old Coke cans. 😬

And yes, that bubbly looking stuff looks like a protective coating as opposed to rattle canned rust.

I don't know the service schedule but I'd usually do timing belt every 60k miles which is 100k km?

That makes sense and would be a bonus. STi is back on then. New exhaust, what else will I need? 💸

Look up what it is as it is time and mileage. Less mileage I'd change the belt sooner. Have seen Kevlar lined belts get kinks from sitting for 6 months between drives.
