Sorry, but frequent (& expensive) 30k timing belt intervals are a serious design oversight - Is this a concern/requirement with the 3.2l Catera motor? How about Opel & Saturn variants? 99% of all cars w/timing belts state 60k to 90k intervals!!! - some will even tolerate 150k or more before breakage.
BTW - here's a bit of related automotive trivia...I hear PT Cruisers have to have the motor out for timing belt/Water pump replacement (unsure of interval...not every 30k though!) - to the tune of $1800 YIKES! Talk about design oversight!
