I'm looking to replace the cambelt on my STI, as it must be due and I don't want to chance it (Cars on 99k). I'm thinking I should probably do the full kit with tensioner and waterpump while I'm there. Possibly even oil pump?

I have an ebay voucher to use up, and was thinking of buying the kit from ICP in the link below. I'm quite happy purchasing the gates belt and timing belt kit but I was a little dubious about the waterpump. How does it fare to a standard item, as i've heard the aftermarket ones are not as good as the original thing? If that's the case then I'll just get the kit and source a genuine waterpump as well.

As above although I got my kit from Graham Goode.

 

Nothing wrong with import car parts

Thanks guys, will probably go with import car parts as I can use my ebay voucher before it expires as well

Has anyone got a view though on the waterpump they supply vs OEM or is it pretty much the same thing unbranded?
