Been doing some searching and having trouble finding what I need..and im hopping you fellow type R owners won't flame me for posting this topic.

My 97 R has a 96spec JDM b18c-R and the timing belt was replaced by the previous owner however it shows a bit a play so I am led to believe the tensioner was not replaced.Belt also is not OEM.

So on to my question; which Timing belt/tensioner/Water pump fits to this motor?

According to http://www.itrca.com/FAQ/general/engineparts.php, I can simply use b18c1 parts? Are these all interchangeable?


My R is parked and im stuck sitting cramped in my s2k till I get this fixed

 

just order all the b18c5 stuff its all the same , order the parts from the dealer or the online dealer.

 

all the gsr/itr part numbers interchange for this. smart move on your part changing this out

 

14510-P30-003 TENSIONER, TIMING BELT (KOYO SEIKO)
14400-P72-014 BELT, TIMING (126RU26)
91213-PR3-004 OIL SEAL (29X43X8) (ARAI) x2 cam seals
91212-PR3-003 OIL SEAL (38X50X7.4) (NOK) oil pump seal
19200-P72-013 WATER PUMP (YAMADA)

all the parts you "should" order to do the job

 

thank you to both you gentlemen. The ITR forum definitely receives better responses than other sections of this site.
I just want to make sure my car is reliable and when the time comes to pass heR on to a new owner he/she will be able to enjoy heR to heR full potential.

 

it does on some things, this forum also has more nose in the air argumentative; the itr is the best car ever people compared to the rest. sooner or later someone will bring up a post with the differences and be like SEEE that one weld right there makes the itr SO much better than a base with all the parts, it's like a completely different experience.

i seriously believe some itr owners in here would have sex with their car if they could

 

Completely true. Lol
