The main thing would be that the Gates belt will outlast a stock (generic) belt. The thing with Gates belt is they don't show the normal wear that a Bosch or other standard belt will. Gates actually supply a special tool to check the wear on their multi rib belts. http://www.gates.com/australia/brochure ... n_id=11309 |

Hate to see you're enginebays Have you seen my engine bay?? Obviously not. Why does a mild steel water pump pulley stay clean and free of corrosion on the running surface? Becase the belt slowly polishes it and wears the oxidised metal. FFS..
