So I'm going to replace my tensioner and I was wondering if any of you have had an experiences with non oem tensioners. For example: http://www.partsgeek.com/4894768-nissan-240sx-timing-chain-tensioner.html?utm_source=nextag&utm_medium=pf&utm_content=dc&utm_campaign=PartsGeek+Nextag&fp=pp&utm_term=Nissan+Timing+Chain+Tensioner

Also if anybody knows the oem part number or when I could buy the oem tensioner
It's for a ka24de

I think for something as critical as that, I would go with the OEM part. Are you replacing the chain and guides as well?

Well beck/arnley was a good company last I heard.

Just the tensioner, looking for somewhere that I could buy just the oem tensioner by itself

Just to clarify this thread is about the KA tensioner correct?

However if it's not I might as well post the SR ones
