buying timing belt parts and water pump

Postby andrew_alfonso » Fri Jan 05, 2007 8:54 pm

I am about to buy some parts for my timing belt service, before I proceed I would like to ask from anyone if:

1) has anyone bought from FCP Groton, LLC (own website and also a power seller on Ebay) for their timing belt parts? Any problems? Concerns? How were the parts? What are the parts made? The website said they are using Conti timing and serpentine belts, are they the OEM ones? I just looked at my original belts, it says "toyota" and "goodyear" imprinted, but is Conti (or Continental) also used in other engines?

2) Also included in their timing belt kit is the water pump assembly. What kind of water pump does my I4 have? (5SFE), my car was made 3/01, what kind of water pump was used? I'm confused if the water pump comes with a housing or not....

Thanks in advance for the advice. Greatly appreciated....
