Put an Aisin kit on it. Don't go with anything other than OEM or Aisin. Aisin makes the OEM kits for subies.

My understanding is Aisin is the best. It is all OEM parts.
Make sure oem. Non of the aftermarket crap. AISIN TKT021. Comes with tensioner.
I went with Aisin, been working for the last 30k miles.
I just got my 2015 Accord V6 (J35Y1) timing belt kit replaced at 112,000 with an AISIN kit which is a rock solid OE timing belt kit. I am very happy and confident with it.
Aisin is the only belt kit. Everything else is ersatz.
I’ve done them on Toyotas with more miles than this and they weren’t even starting to crack.
I use the same exact part that you bought. On mine I could see where they removed the word Lexus or Toyota from the mold. It's the same part as OEM. I replaced the water pump myself and it wasn't too bad but some of the bolts are difficult to get a socket on.
I still changed my thermostat to an Aisin unit for peace of mind, so far so good.
Aisin THF-003 thermostat was used (I believe this is what I'm regretting). It's like the thermostat isn't opening? Everything else seems fine - it's clearly getting hot. Little to no heat at idle. No circulation = overheating of the engine. Is the replacement thermostat stuck shut?
