Greddy pulley belt size?

I installed the Greddy water pump and alternator pulleys that I bought from the forum. Does anyone know the belt size? I bought a new 31 inch 5 rib belt but it is not long enough to accomodate the new pulleys. The parts store guy said there was not another size available. The RX7 Store said they do not sell just the belt.

you need to move your alternator down to make more room. The belt should be ~750 mm, which is ~30 inches. 31 inches should be too big if anything, not too small......

still won't fit

Goodfellas,

I have both the air pump and the alternator down as far as they will go and it still will not fit. Is it because I am keeping the air pump? I need it to keep passing emmissions with your highflow cat I purchased from you last year.

Ohhhhh!

The belt i spoke of is not designed to work with the airpump my man

I would use some string and measure what length you need and go to the parts store. Keep in mind that finding a 5 rib belt will be difficult, so you may have to settle for a 4 rib belt, which will work fine.
