Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

does anyone know of an A/C eliminator bracket so that once the compressor pump is removed the stock belt will run on a jockey pulley ? thanks Ken

POST 2Original post

Why when you can buy the belt for $40 that works without the AC?

POST 3Original post

Quotes source post: 7361517

+1 It's the best way, besides, another pulley would just be another potential part to wear out and fail.

POST 5Original post

I wondered if there even was one. I'm sure he will be glad to hear your replys. Easy install for sure.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Great, that is the perfect solution, do you know who makes the belt ? thanks for the info !

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source posts: 7361517, 7359200

Hey that's great....do you know who makes the belt ? I appreciate the help !

POST 8Original post

It's in PET for ROW ac delete cars, pretty sure it is 996 102 151 65 - if you use a smaller crank pulley/underdrive, you must go a little shorter still.

POST 9Original post

Alex, when you did the AC delete did you remove the complete system? piping & condensors up front...

POST 10Original post

I've removed a few complete systems in 996's, a few in Boxsters, and others too.

POST 11Original post

Is the OEM delete kit for the Mrk1 or only for the GT3 system? Is it only the belt or other parts....?

POST 12Original post

Quotes source post: 7987086

You just remove the ac compressor and get a shorter belt. Nothing else needed.

POST 14Original post

Quotes source post: 7987533

For the safety and the environment concerns. Remember to have the AC system freon evacuated/discharged properly for recycling. Also remember that you can now also remove condensors, lines, evaporator, expansion valve, drier, etc etc. if you really want to get lower weight.

POST 15Original post

That was my plan... Remove everything front to back.... it will be a long winter...

POST 16Original post

Quotes source post: 7987936

I think it's going to be hotter...after AC removal. Sounds like a fun winter project for you, what else are you planning to remove?

POST 17Original post

Quotes source post: 7988532

If the rules go towards the complete interior removal... ITS all gone! otherwise all carpet and headliner... trunk is already looking bare (last night). During the clash the car showed it is in needed of a diet near 300 lbs, just to make the minimum with 1/8 tank of gas.

POST 18Original post

Where do you track it, Limerock and Wtkins Glenn?

POST 19Original post

We run at LRP, WGI, NJMP, VIR, Mt. tremblant & Monticello.... Looking to add Mid-ohio, Roebling Road, Summit Point & CMP this coming year...

POST 20Original post

Well now the big question. How much weight came off in the AC delete ? Car needs the to loose but 150 over the winter but I really like the AC on grid.

POST 21Original post

Dave, not really sure yet... Maybe Alex or someone lese whom have already pulled it out has an actual wieght savings. Myself I really need to consider shocks & springs other then OEM (which I have used all season)... still waiting to see about the new rules on remote res... Don't you have the Moton's w/ remotes in your car? Thought I saw them at the Clash... If so, what spring rates are you using? Chris

POST 22Original post

No remotes I have PS10's @ 850 650 . I am considering the Moton's and also waiting on the rules. As much as would like to save the money the guy's running H improved have them and will get to keep them either way so I am hopping they do not make the rule change, need a couple more seconds to catch the Pete's.

POST 23Original post

Do you find the PS10's not getting the car pushed down? Myself I find the X74 kit works... but still allows to much body roll. I was thinking to go with 850 f/r... (that is what Alex is running & it works nice for his car..) Do the 650's keep the rear planted or is it a trade off for wet traction? We need more seat time to catch Pete... How was the track Thursday? I hear the weather was WET! Pete joined us Saturday on Lightning. I ended up cutting a tire in T3... testing Hoosiers finally... Can keep running the MPSC's if I want to run with you...

POST 24Original post

No doubt on the Hoosiers, and stickers if you want the front half of the grid. Brad Roberts gave me the spring rates , probably a little to much roll but not severe. I am not the best at set up, as long as nothing important falls off I tend to just drive it. Thursday got to drive the AM and was back in my office for the afternoon and back at the track friday it is nice to have a track an hour from home.

POST 25Original post

The hard part is figuring out what works with your driving style, aero setup and tire combination. The X74 OEM worked great with the MPSC's... but is NOT working with the Hoosiers... The higher grip now gives me tons of body roll... Front is WAY TO SOFT! I really thought your car worked well at the clash... Friday/Saturday was fun... I hear you on the close to home track... WGI is only 1.5 hrs from my place... We spend lots of time there.. Last week was our 1st trip to NJMP...loved it!

POST 26Original post

Quotes source post: 7984413

I just happened to see your question. Yes we removed everything including the front radiators etc. There is on tube somewhere in the engine compartment that cannot be removed without removing the engine, so that is still in there. What are you up to? Lightening up for 2011? At Summit Point I was called into the scales and my weight was 3089 (3060 being the min) Hey check out www.rennpoints.com

POST 27Original post

Congrats on 1st place! You are the MAN! I am looking at taking the car on a diet for 2011 (as well as me!) and making it a Full race car. Rolled the fenders over the weekend (as I cut a brand new Hoosier at NJMP Saturday on the D-side front fender), putting a Rear wing & front splitter on as well as Moton's... Are you really happy with the 850's all around? Also, after running last Monday/Tuesday at WGI with Hoosiers (added more neg camber front) I was 2.5 sec faster then my MSPSC's... So, you were right.

POST 28Original post

The 850 front and rear are fine for me. I used these as they came with the used Motons when I bought them some years ago. I hear some who say stiffer might be better but I just try to learn what I drive. Like the Motons I rearely change much based on the feedback I give my set up guy

POST 29Original post

I find myself doing the same... Just learn to make the most out of what I have... I will probably have Joel Reiser help me finalize the setup... But, the 850's really seem to agree with your style.

POST 30Original post

If you don't want to go to the dealership, NAPA has the Gates belt (OEM). The numbe is 060760 Cheers
