Belt help please

[New2RS]

Afternoon all,
So the 182 alternator is toast, it’s possible it’s the original (50k) so it’s done well. While it’s off I’m going to get all the HPAS out, (EPAS at the ready) so my question is this:
Is there a belt people have run that doesn’t require a Replacement pulley to replace the PAS pump? Running crank, water pump and alternator only? My current set up use’s the PMS ac delete bracket with normal 110amp alternator.
Cheers

Is your vitara lifted as well? Not yet. I bought the stuff to do a 3" body lift only a few days before the clutch went so will do it during the summer when im changing the clutch! How much is yours lifted?

You'll have to run a 172 cup alternator and brackets

Cheers for the reply.
The cup set up is on my options list.
So just to confirm, if I stay with the non cup set up the only option is to get the PMS pas delete pulley and run the same 6pk 1305 belt? No shorter belt option?

Would the belt in that set up not do the job? I thought the cup set up was used mainly to avoid an ac delete kit?
I’m probably wrong!
Cheers.

the Cup set up is infinitely better / simpler

Sorry, I posted as you were doing the same. At the minute my current set up just suits me better for a couple of reasons.
Do you know the size code of the belt used in that set up?
Cheers

My memory isn't that good it years since I had a Clio,

Get some string and run it around your desired route, cut it so the ends just meet and thats the length you want,

So if the string is 900mm you want a 6pk900 or 965mm a 6pk965 etc

Sound. Thanks for that, I know exactly what I need for whichever set up I end up with now.
Cheers
