Finding OEM parts (Belt tensioner)

New to the RX7 family here, so please forgive me if I'm not as knowledgeable about how all this works.

Looking to find OEM parts fot the FC's. I picked up an 88 GSU about 1 week ago, and it is missing the belt tensioner assembly for the power steering. I've looked everywhere, junkyards included, and cannot find any part-outs for these cars. Anyone know where I can buy it online?

Attached is a diagram from Mazda. I need [15-932; 15-966; 15-933B; 15-940J; 15-940; 15-942]. Any chance we can steal these off of a different Mazda? I've looked up part numbers, and keep seeing parts from Mazda2's popping up. Are they interchangeable?

Shaft N249-15-932A
Idle Pulley N249-15-940
Bolt N328-15-966
Spacer N249-15-933
Collar N249-15-942

Bearing 940J should be included when you purchase the idle pulley 940.

Most of this stuff should be available through Atkins or Jim Ellis Mazda.

I've not used Atkins, but from a quick look. Looks like Jim Ellis may have what you need.

Awesome. Looks like most of the parts are on Atkins, but im not seeing the spacer. Only spacer I see is for FD, or RX8.

Won't let me PM. I guess because I'm fairly new to the forum?

Jim Ellis Mazda has it for $25 shipped.

But if @lespaul166 has everything used for $5 plus shipping that may be your best bet.

You can save yourself some bucks by buying the Dayco 89036 PS idler pulley from RockAuto (https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo...92362&jsn=353O). The Dayco 89036 cost about $16 versus the Mazda N249-15-940 that cost $100 (https://www.tascaparts.com/oem-parts...4915940?c=az0x).

I replaced my PS idler pulley with the Dayco 89036 last March and so far it's working just fine.
