Aisin O9G Tiptronic / TF-60 is the good 6SP Auto trans that came in the New Beetles and pretty much bullet proof.
Pros: pretty much bullet proof
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Beetle
If this is the second change go with the Aisin kit. It's the best. I've put them in multiple cars. All Japanese parts and Aisin pumps are quality.
Pros: best kit, quality parts
I would just buy the Aisin timing belt kit TKT-031 and then seals from the dealership (or an online Lexus/Toyota OE website)
The Aisin kit will have OE parts, where as other brands probably won't (Dayco definitely not, Continental is a mixed bag)
Pros: OE parts
Cons: other brands questionable
Vehicle:
Lexus
Part number: TKT-031
Nothing is really hard at all to work on with the UZ series V8s. They're not even that expensive either - a complete Aisin timing belt kit with a new Aisin water pump, Japanese idler pulleys, new tensioner and Japanese belt costs less than the Dayco kit from Autozone.
Pros: not that expensive
Cons: time consuming
I use the aisin kits all the time (probably 12-15 of them).
Pros: reliable, frequently used
Vehicle:
Honda
The aisin is a great kit. never had problems on any of the honda v6 timing belts i've done.
Pros: great kit, no problems
Vehicle:
Honda
Just go to Rockauto and get the Aisin Timing Belt and Water Pump kit, its like $170 and you're getting OEM parts.
Pros: OEM parts
Vehicle:
Lexus
But I would do a Lexus and go the extra mile for the Toyota OEM TKT Aisin kits for timing belt/pump/tensioner replacement.
Pros: Toyota OEM quality
Vehicle:
Lexus LS
Highly recommend using the Aisin Timing Belt kit (TKH003) as it contains the actual OEM parts in a kit without having to use more expensive Honda parts.
Pros: contains actual OEM parts
Cons: more expensive Honda parts
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
Part number: TKH003
