I used a 24" breaker bar with a 19mm socket. Put it on the tensioner and pull to the front of the car with a decent amount of force. You will feel the tensioner slowly come forword with a kinda hydrolic feel. It is nice to have two people with this job but I have changed the belt by myself a few times trying out different things..

 

any good places online to get the belt for the 9.5pully?

 

Autozone has it locally. I got the Gatorback one (2265) at the Autozone in Hackensack, NJ.

 

jwaggz82 - Going with the 9.5psi pulley already, huh? If I were you I would cool that charge before adding the extra boost. You will see a much bigger increase in HP if you do.

I won't be upping the boost until I decide on which system to use to cool the charge.

 

Not going to change - i just was looking for some info for my fugure after the warranty.

 

says the k060747 fits a Corolla 1.8L 1ZZ year: 00-02

can anybody say that that is the one because I dont remember anybody stating it was off a corola - i think someone said a jeep w/ the hemi engine

 

bump'd

http://www.nonstoptuning.com/infoPageBelts.htm

according to garage he said its 60747, but on the site its 70890 !

can anybody verify which is which from the people who actually uses it

thank you

 

You need to use

K060747 for the NST underdrive crank pulley

K070890 for the NST supercharger pulley

tikbhoy, it's pretty self-explanatory on that site. It clearly says 60747 is for their tc pulley, and 70890 is for the TRD sc pulley.

 

Does any one have any experience with the TRD belt with the ZPI 9 psi pulleys?

 

I'm running the stock belt with the ZPI pulley. I have no black dust so I assume I don't have belt slippage.

 

I'm running stock belt as well but I'm getting a squeaking sound out of it so I got the TRD belt and havn't put it on yet.
How long have you been running the stock belt with your set up?

 

I've been running this setup since about November or December of 05 (8 or 9 thousand miles).

 

wait - you guys are running a 9.5 pulley and stock belt?

 

I am for now but I am going to change it to the TRD one I have purchased already and see what thats like

 

i had no clue trd made belts - how much was it and what size?

 

The part # is PTR01-21050-94 it cost me $36.20 thats including shipping. I called TRD myself the phone # is 909-625-1500

 

Stock belt (from SC kit) and 9lbs pulley for about 10K miles / 1 year - no issues. Now have 9.5lbs pulley with the same belt - still no issues.

 

Let us know how it works out.

 

Man I really wanna keep the TRD belt on my NST 9.5lbs pulley, but i'm afraid that it might slip and cause worst damage to other parts.
