They will always do it right. The timing belt is kinda a bitch to change when it's mileage hits (around 70,000) cause you have to take off a lot of stuff to get to it.
The KA24DE has a timing CHAIN not a belt. And nissan calls it a "no wear" part. I have heard that the chain tensioners can go bad, but I have never heard of the timing chain itself going bad in a 240SX.
