I did the timing belt last year sometime, and I've put a good few thousand miles on it without any issues that I'm aware of.
From what I've heard, all (standard) Subaru timing belts are made by only one or two companies in the world anyway. Graham Goode racing were doing the belt only for about £35 or £40 on ebay when I was looking at the various kits last year, and if they are selling one that cheap, you can be pretty sure it's a good quality belt.
Dealers usually put a massive mark-up on parts.
