I'm not sure which is functionally better, but when the time comes to fill out that hot4s spec sheet you'll be glad you spent the extra money

By the way anyone else agree that these bullet proof timing belts sound dodgy? or at least way too expensive?

Maybe have a look on other nissan forums see if anyones had discussion there? Im thinking they might go hand in hand with p/polished gloveboxes, twin overhead dipsticks etc.

Good to see my bullshit alarm is still well calibrated.
Sounded a bit Tokyo Drift from my liking.

I think it's just a scam.
I did a search and the only cars they had them for was imports.No other cars or valve train makers seemed to have them.

The gates race timing belts are the go
A little bit more $$$$ than stock but heaps stronger around $90 I paid for mine. They are blue in colour. I always fitted a new timing belt after any engine work or head off ect $40 for stocko or $90 is a lot cheaper than bent valves and mashed pistons if one fails. I think $329 for a kevlar belt is a bit of a waste of money though. Cheers Andrew

Are they a Buron/Repco/Supercheap item - or do I have to find it at a more specialised dealer?

Belt ?
Doesn't this interfere with the correct pushrod operation ? You can view topic.
