Don't think so. Isn't there a difference between the pulleys though? If in doubt get your cambelt done. Be the best £250 you could spend on it.________________________________________ Cherry Red 306 HDIChampionship White Integra DC5 Type R |

People prefer to use the phase 1/2 kit as it has a metal tensioner |

So got another one on there now....gates kit I do spend 75% of my time cruising on a motorway though, but i do give her a good roggering daily - she loves it ![]() ________________________________________ ''Oh, it does handle like a golf!''
