Greddy have one, and there are a few other manufacturers
If your dialing in your cams and looking to get the most out of them then its a good idea, stock belts are good but the Toda, Greddy ones ect, are less prone to stretching over time therefore ensuring your cams and their timing stay where they were set longer.
You don't 'need' one but I would get one to complete the package.
Toda. :thumbsup:
Cool. Can you pm me a price shipped to melb and any dyno numbers if you have them. Also will they have a flex pipe?
My mate has had two of the Toda belts split now... i wouldn't be comfortable with one.
like most parts , OEM honda parts are better quality even under "performance" load.
^^^ Thanks for the advice guys.
Id hardly call them JDM Bling, if they were of no advantage then they wouldnt be fitted to motors that demand more of them then normal OEM applications.
They are made of better materials and dont stretch as much as OEM Items therefore keeping timing correct alot longer then a OEM Belt, but your right Ben, OEM Honda parts are of excellent quality and often take alot more punishment with no failure then they were designed for.
When you say split Gin, i assume you mean along the belt as apposed to snapping??
