product questions

question about certain parts, i've been shopping around for parts and such.. i'm shopping for rotors, pads.. im also getting the crank pulley from RRM and i might as well change my belts also. i found these belts http://sportcompactonly.com/product....6&c=100034&l=2 has anyone heard anything about it?! someone have it on their car? just curious about reviews, reliability stuff like that. also i found these rotors on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/02-03...spagenameZWDVW

Don't buy ebay rotors...ever. I don't know about you but generally I'm not willing to trust issues of safety to some 40 year who still lives in his parent's basement.

Don't get the eBay rotors. My girlfriend's cousin got some for his IS300 and they warped 2 and a half weeks after he installed. I mean you can if I want but I wouldn't based on his experience.

Talking

I got floor mats from Ebay. And they've worked out fine for me...LOL

I was thinking about those belts as well. I noticed them a couple of weeks ago. But like " Handmemyarms" said...( cool name ) STICK to OEM. It's just a belt.

Remember Ebay isnt a company, so its not like a brand. But most of the off brands on Ebay suck. But in my case i bought Tein springs off of Ebay, so its all good.

anything that is a quality product on Ebay should be fine...but watch out fo rno name brands and fakes.

Ebay's just easy to sell crap on
