Hello,
Someone recommended to me that I should keep a spare S/C belt in my car boot. Does anyone know where I can get one and roughly how much it will cost ?
Thanks,
Dave.

I’ve got a couple of new ones spare if interested �10 each + postage (think they are normally about �18 + VAT).
Cool. Out of interest, are they all the same ? Do I need to check something on my car first before we proceed ?
Is paypal ok ?
Dave
These are Good Year 7PK1180. Check the belt on the car, should be marked 7PK1180 or maybe 7PK1178.
Paypal is fine.
Send me a pm if you want to go ahead.
Cheers Mark

I will take one off you, I can pop over and collect or meet up next time your at CC
Mark if you have another i will have it.
Will pick it up next time i see you.
Hello, I have checked and I cant see anything written on the belt itself. Its a maidstone conversion with a jackson supercharger, does that help ?
Thanks and sorry for being a pain.
Dave, just so you know Richard at Blink changed it a month before you took ownership.
I know matey, I am driving to the ring and then spa in about 4 weeks and just want to have one handy, just in case.
I will ask Richard if he knows, thanks again :O)

Belts should have some sort of marking! These belts were for my Maidstone supercharged conversion but not the later one with the dc5 manifold. Which is yours?
Errrrmmm. My car is number 21 and was done about 2 years ago. Sorry about this, but the spec list I have doesnt mention if its a dc5 or not.
You’ll know if it has the DC5 manifold because the charger will be lying flat with the logo visible from above. The older conversions have the charger on its side.
Just play safe and give MSC a call. They’ll tell you what you need whether you buy one from them or not.
If it Pauls old car then it had the older type civic inlet
Yes its Paul L’s (Pleyer) car. Does the new inlet make a difference to power ?
Maidstone didnt help. Can someone supply a photo so I can compare the supercharger positioning ? Always a pain in the a$$.
If it doesn’t look like this then it’s the older inlet manifold. The DC5 Manifold gives a fair bit more power and torque and is not prone to cracking like the older one. Dynoplot shows loads of the various set-ups etc.
Thanks chaps, have some stars. It makes me feel better :O)
Ok, I have the older inlet jobby. Could you send me one please. Can you please pm me your paypal account details.
Thanks,
Dave.
Thats weird my charger was laying flat before the DC5 was fitted.
