Riding on borrowed time

[rexles]

Decided to change out my timing belts this winter as I had no idea how many miles or years were on my belts for my 95 wing with 88k miles.
According to the How to article on timing belts there is supposed to be between 5mm-7mm movement with 4.4lbs of pressure.
I had close to 1" of movement with my finger just pushing lightly. I could see where the belts were flapping against the plastic timing belt cover. Belts were OEM Honda belts, not necessarily original, I suppose, but WHEW, bit the bullet on that one!

Did you use Honda brand belts, , or did you opt for the Gates belts.
If you used the Gates belts, ,did you notice if they were made in USA or UK? There was a discussion that China had begun (possibly) making them.

Gates makes the Honda brand belts,
as to when/if China is sourcing them, I don't know
