Hello Zilvians!

My chin's been getting all sweaty thinking about this and I need your help... I'm seriously entertaining the idea of purchasing a set of these drive belts from Power Enterprise and was wondering if anyone has had any personal experiences with these drive belts.

I'm mainly concerned about belts squealing in cold/wet/humid climates due to the kevlar material found in the belt ribbing.. Also looking to hear about your thoughts regarding these belts pros and cons in comparison to normal OE drive belts. PRICE is not an issue..

Thanks!

I'm using them, I do get a slight ticking noise from them on cold starts sometimes for the first minute or so, but I should tighten them a little more.

If price isn't an issue just get them. I used a set on a BPU SR and for what it's worth I can't tell a difference. Currently I'm using a standard set of Gates belts and run them quite slack, as to be sure the HP consumption is as low as possible, and don't have any issues. I don't like the funky colors anyways (baby blue, and red)

They came on my 180SX, so I kept using them, and that was 3 years ago. They still work just fine now.

I bought them new about 5 years ago.... Still looks great! No cracks and track the car quite a bit..... I'd say good quality

Bought them for my s14 sr back in 2006. Still on no problems whatsoever
