which timing belt kit to buy?

DO NOT BUY FROM FCP

In their kit they send you a scantech tensioner. And twice now they have sold messed up pulleys that make the timing belt hang off the cams about 1/4"-1/2". The first time they said they got rid of their batch but then they sold one to me a year later...

I would not risk it, and the time and effort involved taking the car apart again is just to great to save $20-$50 IMO.

I don't know anything about tascaparts.com but if whoa says they are good I believe him. I need to order some stuff so I might give them a whirl. I liked eeruoparts.com as well, their website was really easy to use.

I just ordered a timing belt kit and xc90 spring seats from tascaparts. How long does it take these guys to ship out? I ordered on Mon morning but my order still shows "processing" when I check the status.


Edit: Nevermind, they just shipped out today.

if i am not mistaken conti belts are oem, timing belt tensioner damper oem is aisin, and oem water pum is aisin also.
