Gates® RPM™ Timing Component Kits are a top choice for both professional and amateur racers. These kits are built to offer the highest level of performance and reliability on the track. Every single part in our RPM™ kits, including timing belts, idlers, tensioners, and supporting hardware, is crafted from advanced materials. They can handle extreme racing conditions, thanks to our decades of experience working with leading automotive OEMs. This kit is specifically designed for Subaru WRX from 2004 - 2014 and STI from 2004 - 2021. It includes 1 racing timing belt, 1 hydraulic tensioner, and 4 idler pulleys. Note that the water pump is not included.

Using this Gates timing belt kit is straightforward. First, make sure your vehicle is turned off and cooled down. Remove the old timing belt and related components carefully. Then, install the new racing timing belt, hydraulic tensioner, and idler pulleys one by one following the instructions in your vehicle's manual. When installing, ensure that all parts are properly aligned and tightened. As for maintenance, it's a good idea to check the tension of the timing belt regularly, about every few months or as recommended in your vehicle's manual. Also, keep an eye on the idler pulleys and hydraulic tensioner for any signs of wear or damage. If you notice any strange noises or vibrations during operation, stop using the vehicle and have the kit inspected. Remember, this kit does not come with a water pump, so if your water pump needs replacement, you'll have to get one separately.
