Nice parts listing!

Does anyone have a full diagram/picture of that side of the engine showing all the tensioners, belts and what not? I want to have a go at doing this but due to crappy circumstances I will have only once chance to do it in one day so I wanna make sure I know the layout and not have it be a surprise.

I think Amazon has everything in the list for $216+tax with Prime shipping 2-day.

The tensioner pulley takes 2-3 days processing and isn't shipped through Prime so I'll purchase that elsewhere.

does no one change out the hydraulic tensioner while they are already in there? if compressed wrong you will ruin it. other than that the parts listed is a damn good price.

It's recommended but not required. When I created this thread I can't remember if I searched for an alternative or not but if you are careful it can be reused. I will search for it and update with a part number if applicable.

Thanks everyone!

Sorry to revive an old thread but would like to know if all these parts would work on an IX. As I am checking gates website some part are only for 03-05 Evo and not 06.

No problem. You may be able to use the VIII water pump but it wont bolt up as directly as others have posted. Your call there!
