I'm in the market for a new performance timing belt but I don't know which one is better. I read alot about the toda belt but didnt' get much about the Greddy. Are they both equal in quality?

 

i have the toda for the bling..everyone says oem is the best

 

stock the toda one is cool cuz its Red

 

aren't they all the same greddy toda and power extreem????????

 

HOWABOUT STOCK??!! HAS A GOOD CONDITION STOCK ONE EVER BROKE..? NO.

 

Ehh...i hear there a waste of money. Stick with OEM.

and you know this?

I dont think so.

 

All timing belts, if improperly tensioned, will fail. The PE/Toda belts are nice, and nothing wrong with the OEM belt either.

 

A wise & experienced engine builder once told me.. always buy the best timing belt possible.

 

theres alot of cams/ headers/ and exhaust challenges. Has anyone ever done a timing belt challenge to see which one can hold more? I think this would be a good idea

 

the toda timing belt is suppose to be 200% stronger than stock...so i would assume its better than oem

exactly! id rather buy an oem one for 50-60 bucks and change it twice as often.

 

Toda belts need to be used with toda b and up cams if im not mistaken. They have a tendancy to shred OEM belts up.

"you guys have never installed a set of Toda cams and degreed them. If you had, you would know exactly what I mean when you turn the crank manually with these cams: they load the belt (harder to turn the crank) as you approach max. lift or the nose of the cam. This binds the belt if the belt has any slack in it whatsoever and the tensioner hasn't taken up the slack. So to prevent this, you add more tension to the belt. That extra tension is way too much for the stock belt at 5000 rpm and up. " -Michael Delaney

 

I have a spare brand new PE t-belt for BVTEC motors for sale.

$125 shipped,

Yep, yep. For Toda B or C cams always run a PE or Toda belt, I ran a stock belt and it lasted only 18,000 miles, then all my intake valves were bent. You decide.
