Rating 5.0

when I got my '06 sti 3 years ago I replaced the original belt with roughly the same mileage on it and it looked to be in fine condition despite being 13 years old.

Pros: fine condition, long lasting
Vehicle: Subaru Impreza WRX STi

Pros: no cracking, no wear
Vehicle: Honda Prelude

change it. do it at the dealer, and don't use an aftermarket belt. I changed mine at the millage i was supposed to(70,000, i think), at a local garage, and he 'saved' me $10 by using a non-honda manufactred belt. fast forward another 30,000 miles and the belt broke. caused $3000 in damages to my top end, (bent valves, etc,) and was not covered by warranty (car, belt or manufacturer). it totalled my car.

Cons: belt broke, caused damages
Vehicle: Honda
Mileage: 70000 km
