[smok3y]

Heya,

Just wondering whether, a genuine Nissan Timing belt is better, or a Timing belt from say Repco ?

Ive heard that Repco is a bit better ??? not sure ?

Thoughts ?

Cheers

well you have a few other options:

Gready/Trust $130

Tomei $160

Power Enterprise $145

POWER ENTERPRISE KEVLAR TIMING BELT $295

GATES TIMING BELT $100

thease are all belts have proven themselves , i think the gates is best value and has

3 TIMES STRONGER THAN A NORMAL TIMING BELT

3 TIMES MORE HEAT RESISTANCE

3 TIMES MORE TOOTH STRENGTH THAN FACTORY

the others dont give you any figures of the strength only the compound they are made from. hope this helps.

Kind Regards

You can buy your gates t/belt thru any REPCO store

i read an article that all timing belts were the same.. as in there were no "performance" timing belts.

they explained how a performance shop was running a standard type of timing belt then when that one failed, they ordered a performance version from the same brand and it came in special packaging, but the part number on the belt was actually the same as stock.

i think it was an autospeed article.. im not 100%
