is their any easy soplution to runnign a 1jz sep. belt without powersteering or aircon?

only possible options i can think of is try swap the tensioner pully for a ripped one if u can get em, or ditch the tensioner pully and mount the alternator so thay u can use the alt to tension the belt (like on a 7m)

go to the wrecker's, find yourself i think it was around a vs model (v6) and grap the idler pulley off it and the belt to use without p/s and air con is 6PK0990

infact i have that belt here you can have for $20 if you want, about 1000ks use and then i relocated the alternator and had to use a longer belt

thats cheap, the belt i got was 40ish

ive done the same with my belt but its still got the standard round wheel, would that crush and ruin the teeth and/or throw the belt off at all you think?

interested to know where u mounted the alternator

i ideally would like mine on the pass side to match the existing wiring loom as this 1jz motor is just a temp thing till i finish off my 7m

it will wear the belt out alot quicker, plenty o commonwhore's at wreckers, the ribbed pulley is a direct bolt on

I just copied TOY77's idea off his thread, it almost bolted onto the other side of the block using factory bolt holes, though i did have to shave a bit off the actual alternator to get it to sit flush with the rest of the pulley's.

thanks jordan. i will go this path also. but cheers for the help and offer on the belt.
did u decide to keep the factory tensioner or just make up a similar tensioner to toy77s aswell?

factory tensioner

so your bell style idler pulleys (ones without grooves/teeth) are only designed to take the backside of a ribbed belt and runs the risk of flattening the teeth of a ribbed belt if run the other way?
