Wow, I found this on ebay--http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ZWDVW



Seems like the list of stuff you can't get for an H23 is getting smaller and smaller

Edit: It looks like they also have one for 3rd gens

 

I say by the end of this year we'll have a great selection :D

 

I thought that you could just use the GSR timing belt. It's a little wider than the OEM H23's but the H23 belt is only a tooth longer. I wonder if they are just selling re-badged B-series belts... IMO you probably dont need one. Most H23 guys are not running huge spring pressure or giant cams anyway.

Good find though!

Edit. If you go to the auctioner's other applications the exact same picture of the "T224RB" belt is used for the Integras too. I don't see why it wouldn't work.

 

hey thats pretty cool. nice find. Might pick one of these up before i finish my build. anyone want to experiment with this timing belt? hehe.

edit: "Power Enterprises sells timing belts to Performance Distributors Greddy , Toda And HKS" hmm... i wonder if this is true.

 

Sorry for my ignorance..but how can you have a PERFORMANCE timing belt?

The belt is lighter so there is less rotating mass and more hp!!1

JK, it's just stronger than OEM. Yes, we all all realize it's probably not needed.

 

Do the stock ones have a weakness problem? or is its just extra safety because the motor is interference? (assuming it is interference, I've only worked on non-interference motors)

For me it would be extra security and bling-blang

 

going for this next belt change

to gates for coming thru

they have it at http://www.optauto.com too for the non ebayers

 

yea, i might as well get one. I always worry about the prostreet timing belt i have in combination with the cams and valvetrain. But so far, the prostreet has held nicely. but i always wanted to get an aftermarket timing belt like the gates belt. for gates! so whats next for the h23's? better designed headers? one can only wish...

Psshh! you gotta pay to play....custom

 

I'd buy one just to thank Banks for recognizing the H23.

Maybe other companies will notice the sales and in turn make more H23 parts. (wishful thinking)

 

yeah gates is putting out performance timing belts for juust about every car, pretty cool..
