i wouldnt trust e-bay crap for something as important as a timing belt. go to the dealer and get the kit. belt, tensioner, and h2o pump.

80% of the belts i install at work are gates. 29% is dayco, and 1% goodyears. Ive had yet to have 1 of any brand come back due to failure. Ive had gates on all my cars too, never failed (knock on wood). Id give it a shot, its decent priced and HAS to be better than the similar priced 'obx racing red and blue' belts and similar quality as the greddy and hks colored 'racing' belts for fractions of the price.

I run dayco/OEM honda.

Not that expensive for OEM stuff, well worth the peace of mind.
