Has anyone here done the idler pulley delete on their 03-05 G35?

I just ordered the spacer for the Power Steering bracket so that the gap between where the old idler pulley mount would sit is now filled with the spacer, but I'm not sure what length belt to get.

Do I need a 45 or a 45.5 inch long belt?

I was doing a little research online and think I need Nissan part #11720-4P10A, which equates to 6PK1145, but I read another thread that recommended using a 45.5 inch belt.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm thinking of probably getting a Goodyear Gatorback belt for the new setup. Thoughts?

 

I have an 06 coupe did the mod and now use the belt from 07.

 

I did it and I have an 07. Go on Z1 they have the kit and the belt.

 

Thanks. I saw that kit on Z1's site earlier while researching but I couldn't find any details from their kit about what length belt they include. You wouldn't happen to know would you?... or know what the belt part # is on yours?

 

 

Looks like 6pk1148

 

Thanks man!

It looks like that belt, though an odd and hard-to-find size, is right in the middle of the two options I initially listed which were the 6PK1145 and 6PK1155.

Does that belt fit pretty nicely?

 

2 belts that come with the aformentioned Z1 kit are Nissan P#'s 11920-AG900 and 11720-4P10A

 

Yea fits great man.

 

I guess I'll order this one then:

 

Go oem bro

 

They are like 50 to 70 bones OEM.... maybe i should have just got the Z1 kit if it comes with an OEM belt. I think that kit shipped was like $36.

 

Yea lol it was cheap from z1

 

I ended up going with a Dayco belt from Advance Auto... part number 5060450 (which equates to 6PK1145) and it fits on perfect with the idler pulley delete. I figured I'd rather go with a local merchant for the belt in case it didn't fit (which it fortunately did). This belt is about 1.15" shorter than the stock belt.

 

good info, I did the delete a while back and have never changed the belts
