Use at your own risk. The risk being destroying your engine, up to you bro!! I would just save up alittle more for a oem kit or gates/contitech at the least. I wouldn't trust the belt or the hydrolic tensioner if you ask me.

At least get the gates timing kit. It's about $70 from rockauto.com

Quit posting this nonsense.

If you used the search function, which this sight and everyone on it suggests you do, you would find out everyone smart recommends OEM parts and everyone who complains about their stuff breaking all the time uses cheap aftermarket parts. Last time I checked no one ran 10's with your ebay timing kit.

I went to the Mitsu dealership for my belt kit-I wanted OEM ..

WP from NAPA being a JMB pump.

No problems here after 5yrs from the install.

OEM quality, great parts, fast shipping too.

 

[DSM1G90]

You call ITM "great quality" ?

 

[IrishBeatdown]

The only ITM part in the entire kit is the water pump. Myself and many many others have run the ITM pump with no problems whatsoever. I wouldn't touch an ITM timing belt though.

Knockoff eBay parts sacrifice quality for price. Use OEM, it will be worth it in the long run.

The tensioner is in there as well.

I do OEM tensioner, Gates belts, and either PCI or OEM pulleys depending on the price.

I ran PCI pulleys for 56,000 miles with no problems when I was boosting a lot more often and was running 15 pounds instead of wastegate. Gates belts are pretty damn good belts, and the blue Gates are stronger than stock. I ran blue belts for the same mileage and was taking them off not really worried about them not living up to the listed mileage.

I'm currently using a Gates water pump and have not seen any difference in temperature between OEM and Gates. They use a different blade design, but they achieve the same result.

Tensioner reads as PCI on the link I posted, when I bought my kit the tensioner was PCI as well. I tossed the belt and used everything else. If i didn't use the HKS belt I did I would have gone Contitech, exactly the same as OEM for 1/3 the price.

 

[DSM1G90]

Heard that Contitech makes the OEM's for Mitsu and where Contitech are the OEM belts for vehicles in Europe.

True, Contitechs are cheaper ..

Timing is one area you don't want to skimp. OEM is by far the best even though it can get a little pricey. I usually suggest gates racing belts since they're pretty much as affordable as OEM and better quality. If you're interested let me know exactly what parts you need and I'll get a quote for you for OEM and the gates belts.

 

[lee98talon]

wow, $91.09 is super cheap. But, it will be a cheap fix if that's what your looking for. Probably good for daily driving and not so good for the tracks/races.

 

[bergz0]

Like stated above try rock auto and spend a little more and get a good tb kit . You are talking about something pretty major in/on the engine now

 

[n0de]

Ebay kit: Bros, i could almost swear that if you even look at that tensioner wrong it will collapse.

 

[Blindsey]

Last area you should skimp. OEM all the way.
