I need a timing belt, tensioner, and pump... prostreetonline has a kit but what i want to know is this. Is it safe to go with someone other OEM? Now, if i went another route like Alloemparts.com which brand timing belt shall i go with? They have, Goodyear, Conti and one from Japan and one not listed on the name but that one is the most expensive. I just dont want some shitty water pump and belt thats all. What do you guys use????

 

With something that crucial I wouldn't use anything other than OEM. I've heard about poor quality with aftermarket brands, although some people will stand tall next to them.

How many miles on your car? It isn't always necessary to replace the tensioner, I just did my timing belt and didn't replace it. No need to. Just did the belt and water pump.

 

yeah i hear you bro. I WANT Oem. How much is a belt and pump from the dealership? I can at least find the pump for $102 online and a belt for $55. I dunno. i have 101,000 miles on my car right now. I just want to replace EVERYTHING thats why i threw in the tensioner. wouldnt hurt! haha.

 

I got my belt and water pump shipped to me from http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com for about $80 for both. I have a different motor though, so mine may have been a tad cheaper. I don't think the tensioner was very much at all, but I can't remember.

Like I said, with something this vital to your engines life, I just wouldn't skimp on it. Spend the extra dough, and know that it's done right.

 

Luckily this girl i used to date who works at Honda got me some prices! haha good stuff.

Pump - $95
Belt - $50
Tensioner - $55
AC Belt - $7
Power Steering - $10
Alternator - $9

I think im gonna go with this. Cant go wrong at Honda right? haha. thanks for help guys.

 

I've used OEM and Gatorback belts on my motors w/ no problems on either. I only use OEM pumps, though.

The ProStreetOnline kit is great. I'd go w/ it personally.
