Anyone have a solution to this, I've maneged to get the alternator belt to last for a month now by leaving it pretty loose, loose enough so it does not squeal, but if you have found a solution please share.

 

theres probably stronger, race-type belts out there...dont know where you can find them though

 

Dont rev to 9,000?

There are stronger belts available, just look around.

 

Maybe CivicSiRacer will come and comment. He races autocross.

 

what engine do you have?

 

greddy makes some uber durable belts I believe... just to follow up

 

I rev to 8500 on NAPA belts. No problems here. :dunno:

 

do you have the correct tension on them? also are you using a ghetto ass pulley kit or something? I dont see why you should be having any problem.

 

I have a 98 gsr with some internal work done to it. 9k is sweet music to my ears. I'm using stock puleys, and stock honda belts.

They have been holding up for now, I was just wondering if any one had any tricks or something. but thanks for the replies.
