I used a 14mm box end wrench on the tensioner pulley (black pulley basically just below the idler pulley) and slipped the handle of my floor jack over it for extra leverage and pull towards the front of the car. This releases the tension allowing you to slip the belt off of one of the other pulleys. Then gently release the tensioner pulley. Don't put your fingers between a pulley and the belt when you have force applied to the tensioner pulley bolt because if your wrench slips you could crush your fingers!

If you've replaced all three pulleys and it is lose then you've missed getting the belt routed properly. Make sure it's centered on all pulleys (especially the ribbed ones). I set up the belt on all of the pulleys except for the idler pulley, then pulled the tensioner pulley towards the front of the car and slid the idler pulley with the belt on it over the shaft that holds the idler pulley and threaded the idler pulley bolt in by hand. Then I released the tensioner pulley, tightened the idler pulley bolt and verified the belt was centered correctly on all pulleys.

i love that one pic

IndyMike · 07-20-2008, 04:35 AM

At least for me I've noticed if I use ImageShack® - Image Hosting that my pics stick around for the most part on forums.

If you have time it would be great to be able to see the pics again as I will be also purchasing the pully kit within the next few months along w/ other mods.

Has anyone noticed that after installing the NST pulleys, that on really HOT days (Miami summers are harsh) when at idle the A/C doesn't cool too well? While driving it cools fine, and if stopped, if I hold the rpms a little higher it cools fine as well.
I am almost positive its because of the pulleys, maybe underdriving the compressor, but just wanted to see if anyone else is experiencing this.

whipsnap · 07-30-2008, 04:00 PM

^^ I have that problem and i'm stock. I was told that it was normal.

Second thing... would be really nice if these pics were fix

MutantCheese · 07-30-2008, 04:19 PM

Cool, I'm curious as I have never dynoed my car, since there is No dyno in my area.

***GlxyGry06Si*** · 07-30-2008, 04:35 PM

I am curious as to what the new dyno will bring. Im hoping to be at 210 but i dont think that is possible.
