Timing belt Gates or Contitech

You could use a Gates timing belt, they're great quality.

Fitted new gates belt

Gates are reckoned to be the best.

Inside of the engine was super clean Gates racing belt, I figure the extra couple bucks is worth it.

Thanks for all of the replies everybody big help love the community I was able to source the parts I needed today timing belt,water pump, tensioner, and pink antifreeze there was green in my car so I flushed it out before I started to do the timing job, which btw took me 7 hours mannnn I’ve never done one of these before and looking at the DIY and YouTube helped a lot but it’s all done and can make it to work tomorrow. If I was off would have started this tomorrow morning I had no choice but to start today at 2:30. Took her for a drive sound was gone car feels great. Again thank you all!

Get a Gates belt. They are the best and timing belt is no place to cheap out.

I'm going to swap the Conti belt I installed for a Gates (OEM on this car). I'll let you know how it goes.

i got the gates racing timing belt. have had no complaints about the belt. other than it squeaking at first and making me think something was wrong.

My preference over the past 25 years is ALWAYS OEM/Genuine whenever possible:

BMW - Continental

Ford/Domestic - ACDelco, Continental

I have had repeated problems with GATES fitment, stiffness, and longevity. 7 of the last 10 snapped timing belts I've pulled from cars have been GATES.

I’m looking at you all you cheap fucking Honda timing belts. Gates/oem or go fuck your mother.
