$135NZ + $28 postage from Ralliart NZ :roll:

This is bullshit, I'm gonna try see if I can adapt a Magna or Triton one. It's just a f**king bearing ffs.

Is that price just for the bearing or the whole pulley system?

You can't buy just the bearing, its a made-for-Mitsubishi bearing by Koyo. Tried CBC, ABC & Hornsby Bearings.

That price is for the whole pulley.

Turns out however, I should take my own advice :lol:

That's the timing belt idler pulley. The one Ben was having trouble sourcing (for a decent price lol) was the drive belt idler pulley.

Also going by the pic that's not the right one for the FTO anyway, as I believe our timing belt idler pulley is offset ;)

Yeah thats the centre idler for the timing belt circuit, sits in right in the centre of the block. Its the tensioner thats offset.

Oh & btw, total freight from Amayama was $36, bringing it to $115 odd bucks :roll:

Finally got a boost gauge happening :) I know, my boost controller shows boost, but I'm a fan of good old fashioned analogue gauges!

Had to bastardize the back of the old volt metre housing to get it to happen. A lovely pair of Autometers :P

Next step, the new Autometer pencil shift light to replace the dodgy eBay special (that never worked properly)

Nice work.
And those are great gauges, have the exact same in the Magna.

Only thing I found to be dodge was the wires for the globe, they would occasionally bug out.
A bit of liquid pvc tape did the job however.
