Here, you are looking at the Company 23 Timing belt kit for your Subaru.
Details:
- GENUINE OEM components sourced directly from OE Suppliers
- Laser marking on all components ensures you receive Company23 quality
- Company23 Branded Timing Belts
- SOHC NA models only
While some of competitors use Chinese made components or use labels like “OE Equivalent” or “OEM FHI”, you won’t find that with our kits. FHI stands for Fuji Heavy Industries, and contrary to popular belief, they do not manufacture timing components or water pumps. FHI Buys them from the component manufacturers, the same manufacturers that Company23 buys from.
The team has spent countless hours researching the OEM components that Subaru used in your car. Company23 has gone directly to the manufacture of each component and worked with them to assemble their kits.
No Knock Offs
The components are direct from the manufacturer to guarantee no knock-offs end up in your car. Those cheap individual bearings on Amazon labeled as a reputable company like NSK? NSK only sells to approved distributors, and Amazon is not one. Avoid the knock offs, avoid an expensive engine failure.
- C23 belts are manufactured by Mitsuboshi and labeled with our branding
- Tensioners are manufactured by NTN
- Idler bearings are manufactured by NSK, Koyo, and NTN
- Water pumps are manufactured by Aisin
No Shortcuts – We’re All About the Details
Company23 is made up of car enthusiasts. That’s why when they put together a product, they always put themselves in the customer’s shoes. What would we put in our own car? What frustrations have we had in the past with timing kits that we would have liked to avoid? What opportunities have other timing kits left on the table that we can correct? Here are just a few of the issues that have been solved.
Custom packaging – These timing kits and water pumps come in custom packaging designed specifically for timing kits. Company23 even took into account things like the bend diameters for storage with recommendations from the belt manufacturer.
Model year specific parts – Did you know the WRX STI got a wider timing belt in 2013? While other kits ignore this fine detail, C23 doesn’t. That is why you’ll see specific listings on our website for a few of the models.
No Color Gimmicks
While we like some engine bling as much as the next Subaru enthusiast, what we don’t like is when the colored timing belts shed all that pretty color all over your idlers, and the inside of your timing covers. Because of this we C23 deliberately spec’d a black Mitsuboshi belt, complete with additional Company23 branding. High level OEM quality, no perceived difference in durability for the average customer, and won’t leave a mess for the next time you have to work on your engine.
