Real soon I'm going to do my timing belt, water pump, etc.... Should I go with the factory OEM parts or go somewhere else like World Wide Auto Parts or Rising Sun Imports to buy aftermarket OEM??

Need some advice..

Thanks....
 
Sup bro.. if it helps any im running a kit from prostreet online and have like 6000 miles on it with no probs ;)
 
Go OEM on this one. I've heard it from more than one person that the aftermarket timing belts don't hold up as well as OEM belts.
 
Nope not a single.. And prostreet is a good company doubt they would sell cheap parts that are that important :) ... Man im jealous your car looks so good with the drop on the stock 16's.. Maybe some day.
 
Who makes the belts for Mitsubishi?? Theres something to think about! i bet they have a contract with a vendor that makes them for all the other noname brands aswell.
