Hi - sorry lads

Im having a right ballache here

After fitting an unorthodox pulley I fitted some belts which are now squeaking.

Decided to replace them both with GATES Belts (1 is a gates but gonna replace it to be sure).

 

Power Steering :

Nissan PN# '90-'93 TT: A172M-59SSAVW,

Gates PN# '90-'93 TT: 040350

4 rib 35" =890mm

 

Alternator :

Nissan PN# A195M-97E0MVW

Gates PN# 040390 Alternator

4 rib 39" = 990mm

 

Thats what Ive been quoted (by Smithy) I think :bow:

 

However

 

My local motorfactors say the 040350 is an alternator belt thats 1037mm long.

and the 040390 is a power steering belt thats 925mm long?

 

What gives - have I quoted for the right parts (Ive given them the GATES Part numbers).

 

Please please please help as Ive about had enough now.

Hi Jason,

 

The following are the belts which I supply with our UD pulleys:

 

TT UK: aircon: 4pk925, water: 4pk990, powersteering: 4pk888

TT JDM: aircon: 4pk925, water: 4pk975, powersteering: 4pk888

 

As you can see only the waterpump belt is different for a UK versus JDM Z32. I know GATES have reassigned part numbers to their old range of belts but I do not know what the new parts are. I would have offered to send you the above belts but unfortunately I haven't got any in stock.

 

HTH

 

Dan

Danny - the water belt? do you mean the alternator ?

 

Cheers fella

Remember your fitting to an "unorthodox" pully so will be different sizes to the book!

 

Also the squeeking is very coman with those pullys, try some talk power on them to stop it, that what I had to do with mine.

 

HTH

The New gates number for the ALT belt which is for UK spec only is 48366 and is the only belt that differs between jap and UK spec upto 94

god i hope this works this time :)

smithy

Lol, cheers Smithy :)

 

Whats talk power? never heard of it - I have tried belt-grip and that shuts it up for a day.

 

and Smithy - (so I can be sure - remember mines a J-Spec without Aircon)

 

TT JDM With Unorthodox Pulley :

water: 4pk975 (is this the alternator)

powersteering: 4pk888

These are both the GATES references.

 

Thanks for all your help !!! Mean it!! This is doing my nut in - just please confirm the above is what I need to order.

Ah jap spec, right forget that then :) you want me just chuck a nissan alt belt in the post to yer, a tenner and to just doubly confirm, it's a jap spec alt belt :D

cheers

smithy

cheers anyway smithy, got a mate whos getting me em cheap ;)

just wanted the right parts number
