Default Aftermarket Timing Belt
Now I've seen alot of people trash talk aftermarket timing belts. But has anyone tried a Gates Racing belt? Or for that matter, does anyone use a Greddy timing belt or any aftermarket one? Having a blue belt would be better sweet...

Either I'm retarded or my timing belt isn't covered. This is a D17A2. I'm looking at the lower right hand corner of the picture.
