Just one big belt, and the kit includes the tentioner and the lower jocky wheel. Tbh, only do the water pump if its leaking or the bearing has signs of wear.

Don't take this the wrong way but I don't think you know what your getting yourself in for. Locking tools are essential too.

Why do so many people say get the water pump done. Seems like another cliosport myth to me! Has anyone actually heard of one leaking on a Sport?

Also the aux belt is hard enough to change IMO. Unles you have done cambelts before I would steer clear.
