Timing belt and water pump

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MITSU...QQcmdZViewItem

found this auction that seems like a pretty good deal just wondering if those parts are actually OE quality brands or not, I have never heard of them before. thanks.

I'd get them! Looks like a good deal! All those brands are good OE replacement brands.

*www.mr-auto-parts.com* Look under Mitsu Lancer '03, under belts, and look at either Cont and Bando ($27 or $33). Then under Engine, under water cooling, at the bottom you'll find the same pump (NPW) for $4x..xx. And the site always gives you free shipping on orders over $50. Total with the Conti. belt is under $70 !

BTW, I get all my brake parts (Axxis ULTs & Brembo rotors) from them... Great company! Got a ground shipment in 3 days! Cali to SC!

Hope this'll help your decision!

^Oh, you mean my auto-parts guy? They are super cool! They even had time to answer an email I sent them a while. Within a few days I had a reply. Great business! They should be a vendor on here with the kind of pricing they have!!!

+1 on the site! I did call mitsubishi to find out which OE brand they use for their timing belt and he said that they are actually making their own belts now.

I'd doubt anyone here is on their third timing belt yet, with the chances they've used both. But if I could figure which was made of a higher-grade material, I'd vote for that one... But both are OE replacements. I believe even AutoZone sells them (order only, LOL), but for much more!

atilla, I will be changing all the belts pretty soon, and that is why I am asking. As of right now I am leaning to Bando, so that all of them are universal. If anyone thinks I should do continental let me know. I plan on purchasing it on Friday through mrautoparts.
