I have the ability to install from what I have seen, I just don't have the preventative and diagnosis knowledge incase something goes wrong...

Yup, looks like the belt is flipped around and the V-grooves are not on the correct side of the idler pulleys.

do you even own a JRSC? you do know our belt is different from KWSC, not sure if serious or trolling.

My bad, wasn't trying to troll. Just looked into the JRSC instructions and didn't realize the the JRSC kit used a double-sided serpentine.

Hey Fam I have a couple questions.

I am planning to get the JRSC soon. I can get it by the end of the month if I purchase it with my credit card. If not, I'll have to save for about 4-5 months. Not sure if I can wait that long because seeing how everyone loves it makes me impatient.

Should I purchase it with my credit card?

Do I need an oil cooler if I plan to take it to the race track 3-4 times a year?

Will I need to upgrade the clutch?

Thanks fam

We can't answer questions about your finances, but if you can't pay off your CC balance off each month it's better to save and buy outright.

The only exception is if you can invest the ~$5k and pull a greater return than you are paying in CC bills. Which is just about never.

Idk if you pulled the trigger yet but if you are 100% set on using your CC i would get a new 0% intro rate they usually last a year or so and just pay it off before then. Save yourself a little.

I dont advise using your CC but if you are going to do it make the best decision

Thanks for the advice. I will try and get the lowest interest rate as possible because I don't think I can get 0%.

I saved for it but didnt want to use the money I saved when I actually had enough to buy. so endedup putting it in my savings and used my savings to get a secured loan and the interest rates are low. By the time I pay off the loan ill still have the money in my savings. Sorta borrowing money from yourself in a way plus u build credit with it.
