I'd look into the timing belt. Its an interference fit. If it goes while the motors running all hell brakes loose. Bent valves, broken pistons. I think Lexus charges 450-475 for parts and labor.

Man, don't be afraid of 100K. I know it's phsycological to you but still. You should only think of giving it
up at around 300-400K. This is when the 1st couple of things may go wrong.
