Has anyone tried using Mitsuboshi belts?

I didn't find a single mention of this brand in the 5th gen forum so I thought I'd ask.

I think they are an OEM supplier.

Price looks good:

Dude, it's a belt. It doesn't really mattter. Name brands will last longer, have good warranties and are harder to slip (based on the feel of the rubber).

 

They seem to be good; also an OEM for Honda. I actually have a Mitsuboshi timing belt on my Accord at the moment.

$25 is reasonable. Another good company is Bando. I got a set for my I35 pretty cheap from a RockAuto closeout.

 

For 25...I'm buying a gates lol.

16 after tax for Dayco at Advance, here, for alty/AC. PS is more expensive LOL.

Driveworks cheapos are 19 for both belts after tax.

 

Rockauto!

 

We use a lot of Gates belts at the shop. We work on some very high end Euro cars and exotics too.

 

15 and 13.60 on amazon for alty/AC and PS, respectively. That's pretty good. I bet they'll last longer than the car LOL.

I always forget, but the junkyards has tons of new brand name belts. I see so many recently replaced radiators and belts, it's absurd.
