Test fit my rad tonight, it fits!!!
Just need to trim up a few spots and cut off the mounting bracket for the old charcoal canister and it will sit flush on the core support. Very happy

240SX used serpentine belts.
KA-DE and E from a truck used V-belts.
No. I'm not seeing it. You are the only one.

Where's your sense of adventure?
When the only tool you have is a hammer every problem starts to look like a hippy.

Meh. It will be fine.
It was the original guides made from cheap, crap plastic that had problems.

Re: Adam's annoying ass green 620
Sometimes you pay the price and develop "medical issues" when going with the mob, but from the looks of it, I don't think you had a choice there. At some point it's just a matter of survival though right?
I hope you can get back to work on your car once you're out of detox. We're pulling for you Adam. We know you can beet this thing, but next time... just say NO.

Re: Adam's annoying ass green 620
So long story short I didn't do ALL the reading i could have and it cost me in regards to my timing kit....
Problem A was the plastic guide... Solved it with a new aftermarket guide
"Potential" problem B was that some of the less desirable kits had issues with the pressed in oil caps on the tensioners popping off....
Therefore losing oil pressure on the tensioners, well u see where this is going :/
I couldn't find anyone that had used the kit I bought and complained about it. But I still lost some sleep over it to be honest
Ended up deciding to find someone to tack weld the oil caps in place. Driven agreed to help, thanx again
So now I'm as happy as I'm gunna get with what i have so it time to build this fucker finally!
