OEM counterpart? (Iwas rebadge at repack sa casa)

[chookchakchenes]

Hi dami ko nababasa information lately kung saan bibili ng parts. Ito na gawin thread para ipost kung saan mabibili original parts sa engine na hindi nirepack/rebadge ng car manufacturer. Thank you JapanABC sa mga information.

Ako ang alam ko sure na pwede counterpart ng honda automatic transmission fluid z1 - Castrol import and Zic dextron III.

Sa manual transmission if magpalit na parts like clutch disk, pilot bearing, release bearing, pressure plate ano yung original brand sa honda?

Ito thread information kung saan mas cheaper yung oem parts kahit casa or banawe. Example HRC in banawe mas mahal pa sa casa benta na parts.

If you want OEM Clutch Disk and Clutch Cover(Pressure Plate) for Honda then choose F.C.C. Made in Japan(NOTE: There are two F.C.C. -one is made in Japan(Better Quality) one is made in Thailand(Cheaper One) - Then buy from Share auto supply tell him you want Made in Japan, About bearings KOYO Bearings(JTEKT Corporation) is under Toyota Group of companies in other words Koyo's parent company is Toyota and it manufactures one of the best bearings in the world, it also manufactures bearings for other major car makers. If you want a good quality clutch release bearing or idler & tensioner bearing but for lower price choose GMB its quality is already tested and it is OEM for Hyundai, Kia, and few Volkswagen.
If you want better quality piston rings choose RIK it is no.1 Original Equipment manufacturer of Japan and supplies to Car Makers such as
Japanese Automotive and Truck Engine Manufacturers
Daihatsu, Hino, Honda, Isuzu, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan Diesel, Subaru, Suzuki, Toyota
For Europe and USA Automotive and Truck Manufacturers
AUDI, BRIGGS & STRATTON, BMW, CATERPILLAR, DDC, FORD, JAGUAR, MAK, MAN, SEMT, Volkswagen, WARTILA, New Holland, KS
and MAHLE

If an auto supply attempts to change your mind, it is because only he/she wants to sell you on-hand stock in their warehouse. But if you want better quality you must choose yourself. I only want to give proper information. NPR is OEM for Isuzu, NPR's market share in Japan is only 20%. Yet NPR is most popular in Philippines because of mechanics who only gain experience from on-hand repairs, They say they are already "Sanay" sa NPR and wouldn't choose any other brands, But more veteran Mechanics choose RIK or 2nd Choice TP.

And to clear a mistake, CASA do not repack those OEM items here in the Philippines. It is done by Toyota, Mitsubishi and other Car manufacturers in Japan or their other branches in different countries. That is why you can see the inconsistency of where it is made, for example this product is made in Japan, because the product was bought in Japan by an OEM factory. If Thailand then it is from a Thailand OEM factory.

What do you mean by this?

[JapanABC]

What do you mean by this?

I mean that RIK is also OEM for those European brands. RIK manufactures piston rings and etc... for MAHLE(European brand Piston Ring) and other European Cars and American Cars. But of course it is not 100% OEM for every car, for example for Mazda cars = 83% of its piston rings come from RIK Corporation.

Di ba ang GMB water pump? and GMB ba the best sa water pump?

Are you sure?

I will give you an idea on how big Mahle is. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahle_GmbH

[JapanABC]

Are you sure?

I will give you an idea on how big Mahle is. Mahle GmbH - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm giving you here based on MAHLE website OKAY? NOT SOME WIKIPEDIA info
MAHLE Group | Press release RIKEN June 22, 2007

It doesn't matter how big is MAHLE, its a matter of joint venture or cooperation between two giant companies. Please do a little more research before you try to blow of some steam.

"MAHLE and RIKEN will promote joint cooperation in the areas of technical development and manufacturing of piston rings, engine components and systems, camshafts and other products in line with day-by-day advancement of engine technology. Also the technological level will be enhanced by active technical exchange."-From the website link above

I'm not blowing steam, its good to know that YOU know what you're talking about.

Bravo!

And please do not lecture me on the corporate websites, as I know all about them too.

Di ba ang GMB water pump? and GMB ba the best sa water pump?

No they are not the best in water pump, but they are well known here in Philippines by brand recognition, but they manufacture some bearings also, and universal joints and tie rod end and stabilizer link.

Other brands of water pump such as Aisin, NPW(Nippon Water Pump) and etc... are very expensive therefore no one supplies them here in philippines.

So ok na gmb water pump or meron ka iba recommend available locally na same price? Sa mga old cars na kailangan timing belt ano advise mo ?

[JapanABC]

I thank you also for making this debate, so that I can further specify information or narrow it down.

[JapanABC]

GMB is good quality naman, because it is OE to Mazda, GM, Hyundai, and Nissan. About timing belts Bando made in Japan, which is packed in a box, this is what my friend told me. Or Gates timing belt. They are both major OE brands. But remember this timing belts have tendency to be aftermarket quality because of the market here in Philippines demand cheap products so Suppliers only supply what majority of the Philippine market wants. Like NWB or Nippon Wiper Blade, they have different kinds of wiper blade quality. Such as NWB Aqua - Is lower quality than OE Stock but it is cheaper made in Malaysia, NWB NR-27 - is better quality wiper blade made in Japan but price is almost double of the NWB aqua.

Di ba ang GMB water pump? and GMB ba the best sa water pump?

We are shifting to Aisin water pumps since it uses a plastic impeller that doesn't corrode unlike the metal impeller of GMB. Aisin water pump for a Toyota was Php1800 from Riken Masangkay so the price is not so bad.

I thank you also for making this debate, so that I can further specify information or narrow it down.

you certainly have a wealth of knowledge... if i may be bold enough to ask... how did you get to know all this?
are you a user, a dealer, a distributor, or a manufacturer?

[JapanABC]

I'm just a simple man, I'm just here to answer questions or to give information that most of the people do not know about OEM brands or Good Replacement Japanese brands. I also recommend retail shops that are honest and sell at average price if you canvass.

[shibby75]

I always try to find Aisin brand for clutches,pressure plates and even at fluid. Are these replacement parts or oem?

Is it the same manufacturer as the aisin of toyota?

[JapanABC]

AISIN world renowned for quality and reliability, AISIN Clutches hold the largest market share of parts supplied and manufactured for Toyota. This technology is incorporated into products supplied to other automakers as Original Equipment. By applying the knowledge and experience derived from OE manufacturing, AISIN Aftermarket parts are of equal quality and reliability.

Like AISIN, Daikin Exedy, FCC and NKK Clutch disk and pressure plate, they have factories around the world. It depends what the Philippine market wants, so the Suppliers follow what PH market wants, Japan brand Clutch disks in the Philippines have two kinds as long as I remember one made in Thailand and one made in Japan. Some brands you can not distinguish if it is made in Japan or made in Thailand. Kelangan mong pakiramdaman yung ugali ng shop and its counter salesman, some auto supplies sell Japan products as Japan, Thailand made products as Thailand and Taiwan products as Taiwan, and some auto supply used dirty tactics to sell to common people(people who is unaware of brands and etc...) Taiwan products as Japan, China products as Japan and etc... Example, One time I was listening to the counter salesman of the "specific" auto supply, one mechanic or customer(dirty in appearance) who is repairing his car ask the counter salesman mechanic(customer): "meron ba kayong ganitong raidiator cap" then the counter salesman took the Kanebo brand and told the customer here this is a Japan made radiator cap, the customer still in doubt asked again to reconfirm if it is Japan, the counter salesman answered "Oo, Japan yan", Mechanic: "Sige bilhin ko na". Bottom line, Kanebo is never a Japan brand nor does Kanebo brand exist in Japan. There are some auto supply retailers you can trust that sell Japan made. The only thing you can do is canvass prices. Just message me the name of the shops you buy from and I will tell you if they are trustworthy or they do monkey business.

Is it the same manufacturer as the aisin of toyota?

Yes the AISIN you are buying the blue box is the same manufacturer as the one who supplies to Toyota.

This Aisin with made in Japan inscription on the Clutch disc
