    Some say Brando is good. Medyo may kamahalan nga lang.

    Ano recommended ninyong brand ng belt?

    Hmm.. I think the brand you are pertaining to is Bando brand. Made by Bandag Incorporated, internationally recognized recapping company.

    Some other brands are Gates of USA & Mitsuboshi of Japan (some say it is locally made).

    Those that i see as OEM on Jap cars are Mitsuboshi, and Bando. Gates is good also but mahal din. I'm using Dayco sa pick-up ko now but i still havent passed 2 years with is so wala pang feedback (so far so good).

    Gates is widely considered to be OK. In fact I have a publication from a US repair company (PDF I downloaded) with complete Gates belt guide.

    About the "medyo mahal..." it's funny, I bought a Gates timing belt, it cost 1/3rd of the OEM belt.

    I'm using Gates. Minsan Mitsuboshi at Dayco din.

    Most of them perform the same. Ang importante ay yung tamang belt size. I broke two name-brand belts on two different ocassions dahil mali ang size. Sobrang layo ko pa naman sa Manila nung mangyari ang incident.
