It's interesting the belt is made in Italy while the idler/tensioner pulley is made in the US. So, for those who care about Japan made, this kit is not. Let's see how good of a quality it is.I wouldn't be concerned with the quality of the Dayco kit. I've used their kits on numerous vehicles and they seem to be good quality. I am about to do the belt and tensioners on my Tacoma and will likely use a Dayco or Gates kit.
