Default Which timing belt?
On my B16A swap, I installed a ITR water & oil pump - question is:
Which timing belt do I need to use?

Thanks.

You use the belt for the Pump design.

B16/B18C Water Pump ------ B18C Timing Belt
B18a/B18b Water Pump ----- B18a/B18b Timing Belt

the B18C Pump has more teeth so to keep it aligned properly you need the B18C belt to allow for proper timing. You donnt need an ITR belt Get a GSR belt its cheaper and is the exact same thing.

The b18c belt is too big, you need the b16a belt. The guys who say otherwise are wrong. All b series dohc vtec water pumps are the same.

if they are all the same, why are they different part numbers? the itr pump is different. i know that for a gsr with itr pumps, you use the itr belt. i dunno about the b16 though
