Where did you get the tool?

I honestly can't remember. I see eBay and AMS sell them.

Here's a set of tools that are useful for a t-belt job.

Good call. I think I'd recommend that to anyone hesitating. Also, you can't go wrong with Tom tuning it! Great thread!

If you're really interested in doing work on your Evo I'd get some practice on some other cars. If you or any of your friends have a non-interference motor and need a HG and/or T-belt, then help eachother out and do it. It's hard to ruin some of those motors. Eg. old tercel, celica, non-vtec hondas, etc.

It seems everytime I'm doing big jobs I want to hire someone to do it. Then again, I have a trust problem.
