whats the deal with the KM132. I'm assuming this is the code for the gearbox in the D50's right? is this stamped on the gearboxes anywhere that can help me make a quick check that I'm getting the right gearbox?

and can anyone narrow down "late 80's to early 90's" at all for me?

you should be able to select a belt from a catalouge fairly easily as they are only made to standard lengths.

you know how there is two pieces, one sits inside the other with a taper.

you shave the back off the outter one so that the taper's hit each other and not the flat faces at the edge.

he spoke to mechanics first and other knowledgeable sources ...

I'm a bit late, but thought some of you would like to know...

you CAN shave the synchro's down to help shift better. A friend of mine who is a fitter and turner, did it to his daughters honda prelude instead of buying new ones. when from absolute SH$t to shifting like new!
