cheap timing belts??

[kunar]

so i've read that jon's used these, anybody else here? how has it held up? i dont want to buy junk that will wear out in 6 months, will i regret not spending a little more for quality parts?

ebay timing belt and water pump kit

[Turpro]

I'm just running an autozone belt. Been working fine. Never snapped a belt

i was running a complete ebay timing belt kit on the GTR, no problems. i replaced the belt with a gates blue one because i felt like it. i saved the belt and just installed it in my new beater which should be up and running soon...

its just a belt, it seemed to be no better or worse than any standard replacement part

im using the exact kit in mine and have had no issues with mine very good parts from my experience

[deathtrigga]

they should run just fine

doesn't matter that much on these cars. if it breaks, you're stranded till you replace it. no catastrophic engine damage like a honda.

thanks guys, i'll order that kit and hope it gets here by the weekend.

btw, how many miles do you guys have on these kits?

[90prtege]

i only have about 600 miles so far i just did my motor swap

[therieldeal]

i put like 9k miles on the belt and pulleys, then another 3k on the pullies with the fancy Gates belt. no problems, and like i said i just re-used the belt on another car.

i have no idea about the water pump, i retained the original GTR one.
