Evening Chaps.

Honda charging ruinous prices for Cambelt/bits/service I thought I'd consider elsewhere.

I know a couple of people on here have used these guys and NCCMUR I think had his belts done there.

Any comments/thoughts about them?

One thing that worries me - unless I'm reading old threads in the wrong order it looks like Sha's 4th was resprayed by these guys and turned bad again very quickly.....?

Any opinions appreciated, as I said :D

Thanks Newkid.

From seeing this and looking at the site the guy obviously knows his engines and swaps. Has he done much for you?

It's kind of you but I've just eaten, Ratty.

Agree about the build though. :)

A number of my friends have used Gerry for years on all manner of Honda's. None of them has complained and that's from servicing to engine conversions.

Plus anyone that fits a K20 into a Jazz definitely needs to know their onions.

Blueprint ADL do a timing belt kit which include both tensioners and belts for the Prelude. Mine is getting done on Sunday along with a whole rake of other bits and bobs.

this kit only contains the tensioner bearings NOT the auto tensioner that is a honda only part
