This is my first post but ive been lurking around for about a month now. Ive got a 2006 WRX 2.5.

Im looking to change the timing / cam belt for piece of mind and also coolant at the same time.

Ive got no worries in respect of doing the job but are the dayco belts off http://www.importcarparts.co.uk/ any good? or gates? ive seached around and found no clear answer.

Also, I cant get genuine subaru coolant / antifreeze anywhere. What should I be using?

Thank you.

 

Gates are standard (subaru ones are gates), so nice to stick with those, and anti freeze can be had from any dealer (they should stock it being a dealer )
It does specify exactly which type of anti freeze is required in the handbook

Sweet, ill get the gates one then.

The handbook is a bit vague when it comes to coolant. And when i rang the nearist dealer (grantham) they said blue! lol. Which didn't give me much confidence in them!

 

Check out comma for coolant.

 

Which one? The G30 Looks compatible? but they do loads. I know it needs to be OAT type which G30 is.
