The other week I noticed one of the belts was abit mauled up. Im taking my car up the coast (6 1/2 hour drive) tomorrow night and am wondering if the belt in question is going to be a major deal if it snaps. I was wondering if someone could tell me what its for? (Please say AC or something i can live without for a couple days)

Anyway here are the pics

Looks like a power steering belt to me.. the good news is its the easiest to change out of all of them, the bad is that the others may not be in the best condition if they havent been changed in a while.

ok well yes I know it needs replacing, im just wondering what exactly it is givent hat I might not be able to get it replaced by tomorrow night. My worry is that IF it breaks during the drive im going to be stuck on the side of the road.

    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
