how hard have you drove it. Becuase thats another factor that can go into the problem
yeah man,do it...if it snaps you'll cry...don't take chances with timing belts,and how hard it's been driving has nothing to do with it at all I would have done it a 50k miles/80k kilometers
my old corolla had a snapped timing belt cause they told me to change at 140k kilometers
yeah they have to be done between 60 and 80k aswell...unless it's different on Mount Akina...lol
hahaha i changed it at 50k and forgot about it unitl BANG
told Itsuki to do it too on his eight-five and just in time
As far as mileage goes, I would follow the manufacturer's guidance, but don't let it go beyond 10 years on an interference engine. The belt will be the least of your worries.
