Graham Goode sells under his Brand Dayco belts. Dayco is one of two biggest belts manufacturers and GG says those are very reliable. Also some UK rally tarmac drivers are using GG's belts and are recomending them.

Rumor has it that also Subaru OEM Belts are made by Dayco.

Second choice would be STI Kevlar belt which could carry more Engine power but is also noisier.

Hey Dave,

I work for a well known autofactor and I would also recommend gates for the belt itself, if you require any tensioners I would highly recommend INA.

When you say for an EJ207 engine, have you switched your original lump for this engine or is that what your car came with from factory?

If its the original lump in your car give me a registration number and I can tell you the part numbers you require.

Cheers, David.

Additional interesting reading you could find here Dave.

According to David from API all timing belts, including Dayco branded ones, are made by Gates.

So you can not go wrong with either of those.
