Conti brand belts?

[GAdriver]

So I found a few t-belt kits and the brand of most of them is Conti. Is this the stock brand or what? I go to conicelli's site and they dont have anything for dsms. Thanks

that's because they don't sell Mitsu parts anymore

I've got a contitech T-belt and BS-belt sitting right next to me that I ordered from Ongreenperformance.com. Belts appear to be of very high quality, are "made in germany" which usually means good since the germans are historically anal about production quality, and for what it's worth, they have the factory Mitsu MD# sticker on the bag. If you're doing a full job, look at ongreen, I'm very happy with them.

Conti is Continental Tire, in case you needed that. I don't think you can get bad belts. It's too expensive to tool up to produce them to gamble with a product that won't hold up.

So a continental brand timing belt would be OK?

Hopefully that's a joke, cause D's post was meant to be...sorta. Contitech is the belt manufacturer. They're good belts.

Pardon? They're to Continental as Gatorbacks are to Good Year.

Oh, okay I'm surprised I didn't jump on that one, especially considering that Continental's parent company Continental AG is a German company and the bags have "Made in Germany" all over them. Duh, makes much better sense now.

Mitsu OE belts are Bando

Conti belts are good stuff and you shouldn't have any problems.
