Best place to buy cambelt kit & rear crank seal
 
Hi guys & girls ...

Looking to do a cambelt change with abit of help, Is it recomended to get the kit and change the pulleys aswell or can i just change the belt .. found these guys wo can supply a kit: http://www.importcarparts.co.uk/parts_info.asp?id=433

anyone used them b4 or used this this product or know anywhere where they do a reasonable offer.
Also doin rear crank seal at the same time im guessing they will prob be able to supply this aswell ... any reviews on the above site or recomendations on where to go would be cool ..:thumb:

IPC are excellent to deal with mate, next day delivery if you order AM. Any questions phone them, very helpful.

Edit: It is worth the extra £20 for the Gates belt over the Dayco item.

I'd recommend Import Car Parts to anybody. Top class service and most stuff is oe or oe quality.

I just ordered my idlers gears for the timing belt from him and they reference oe. Bought the timing belt off GGR as they were the cheapest from a recognised company. Not sure about crank shaft oil seal though.

The Gates are a good OE quality belt, I fitted one 3 years ago and have another one here waiting to go on very soon. They are used by many on here and else where?
Here's the kit http://www.importcarparts.co.uk/part...en=&searchKey=

You wont go wrong with importcarparts.co.uk

I ordered a woodruff key and rear crank seal from them at 3.45 on a friday afternoon, and it came by 10am saturday morning. Now thats what i call good service.

Another for import car parts, i got the gates belt and full pulley kit genuine oil filter and sump washer and fan belt for about £220 delivered, i wish i had got the cosworth belt as its 300% stronger so they say, import car parts said i could return the gates no problem and pay the diffrence for the cosworth one if i wanted, 1 st class service
