Ironic that I come back here today with the same dipstick problem (I assume). Mine just spins now, any ideas on how to get it out?

How many belts have you guys went through? Went through 2 belts so far 16k miles in. First one went in 500 miles, marked it off as a fluke. Second one went after 15.5k miles.
72.5mm pulley with Gates K061015. Easy fix but got stranded a few days ago. Going to keep an extra belt and a ratchet in my car next time. Maybe I should try the blue racing version from Gates (K061015RB) but it seems to be out of stock. Last edited by kev0; 07-23-2021 at 09:46 PM. |

Keep in mind that I don't believe Motul Gear 300 is MT1 rated. Though I'm not sure how important this is. Quote:

I would start by putting as much upwards pressure as possible with your fingers while turning. From there I would try prying upwards with a flathead screwdriver underneath the dipstick while turning, otherwise pulling up with pliers while turning. If it is really stubborn you may end up needing to evenly get under each side of the dipstick with a flathead and just hammer the thread completely flat to get it out. Then straight onto the repair or replacement. |

Can you tell if the belt is put on correctly from these pictures? Funny enough, my whole ownership with this kit came with belt squeaking whenever I turn on the car. Anyone know what I should check first to address the squeaking? |

Belt #3 snapped today. Think i'm going to replace idler pulley too this time. It did look worn out and the edge of it appeared to be melting a bit.

Thanks for the advice. No oil leaking fortunately, I had just finished installing the kit. Turns out I crossthreaded the hell out of it. I had a shop extract it for me and re-tap the thread. Had them change the gear oil too since it was contaminated with metal pieces. Expensive lesson, don't rush the small things just to finish... so it goes..

Anyone know the part number for the vacuum actuator for the bypass valve for the 335? Pretty sure its different from the 210.
I'm trying to order a new one from Jon Bond Performance, but not sure which one since they offer a ton of them. I haven't been able to get in contact with either Jon or Sprintex, but Jon did ship out some gaskets for me when I ordered through the website. So, if I could just order the right one it would save me a bunch of time and headache. |

Does anyone know if Innovate or Sprintex are still producing their kits for the platform? Innovate doesn't show the unit on their webpage anymore (but you can get there using the old URL), and Sprintex doesn't show it on their webpage either. Sprintex also hasn't replied to my e-mail inquiry.
I'd really love to put a twin-screw on my BRZ. |

Has anyone ever inspected seals or changed the bearing on Sprintex S5-210's?
Sprintex nor Jon Bond are replaying to my inquires. I am looking for torque specifications. My unit was previously owned. The oil leaks onto my rotors and is the reason why the intake manifold and intercooler were full of gunk. https://imgur.com/a/BM3Otwh |
