a small performance shop got it for me, he said he know someone from TRD. i think it was around 70 or 80 dollars.
How often it slipped off? At first my i notice my belt was not spinning at the center of the pulley. a week later, it got shredded.

I had the same problem when I got the pulley and belt, I just went with a smaller belt. I don't remember the number, but you could probably go with a 1/2" smaller.
