The trigger kit I have is similar to the one in the link below. While going through Facebook, I saw someone else mention a similar issue, and I鈥檓 starting to think this could be related to the crank gear itself. I understand these parts are CNC machined, but maybe some earlier versions or individual pieces might have slight inconsistencies鈥攊t just doesn鈥檛 look right in my case. https://www.facebook.com/share/16an8evZd9/?mibextid=wwXIfr I originally installed the crank gear using the thin OEM washer, but as shown in the attached photo, the timing belt walks very close to the edge. When I tried using a Nitto washer鈥攚hich is thicker鈥攊t actually made the issue worse. The belt walks about 1mm off the front edge, which raises more concern about alignment. I鈥檝e gone through the full process of elimination: The tensioner pulley and bolt are brand new and installed correctly. The bolt isn鈥檛 bent and is oriented properly. The back of the tensioner and the idler pulley are clean and seated correctly. The idler sits slightly more forward, which I understand is due to its design. I鈥檝e experimented with both tight and loose belt tension, but it makes no difference. As soon as the engine runs, the belt immediately walks forward again鈥攅ven if I reset it beforehand. At this point, I鈥檓 considering replacing the crank gear with your Race Version 1 (12-tooth), but before purchasing, I wanted to ask: Are you aware of any alignment issues when using this gear? Would this gear help keep the belt aligned correctly, or could the walking still occur? Does it work with a standard missing-tooth crank and rear washer? Is there any specific crank setup or install procedure required? For reference, I鈥檓 not using a front washer, as the PRP crank gear seems to replace the need for one. Looking forward to your advice. -
Yep, looks that way. Never driven an E30 or R31 so I can only imagine

Yuh, My new R34 box is sitting on the workshop floor (in its large shipping box, which is a nice thing on its own), along with a front plate to convert to push clutch. There was no way I was interested in rebuilding my existing one. Was only partly interested in the risk of buying a used one. But, if you want a 2nd hander, I can point you to one in/near Melbourne at least. @Komdotkom has one that should be in good enough condition to be usable. I don't think it's in a for sale thread, you'd have to message him. @redzedhas one that definitely needs a rebuild.
