All Porsche 928S4 and onwards use the same belt. It is a HTD belt. Actually since MY 1984 the HTD belt is installed. Differences are only in construction. Each brand tries to explain specific benefits from their construction materials.

Nobody says how long a belt lasts. None of the suppliers I looked up. But all say about 60.000 miles (100.000km). A general understanding is that the car does 20.000 km/year which means a belt should not get older than 5 years. Many notes on rubber timing belts say similar ageing: 5 years. 928INTL says 60.000 km is a good idea. My GTS belt was swapped at the Porsche Center at 66.000 and 10 years age. That seems like a real good time.

As everything wears, so does the cam gear.

This shows how the edges of the sprocket wear and reduce the surface that the belt grips on.
