Hi, first time poster here and need some help. I have a 92 300zx N/A and she needs a new timing belt, my question is what all is involved when installing a timing belt? I've installed a few timing belts before, namely on my good ole 88 pathfinder. Any replys would be appreciated.

if you did a timing belt on the pathy then you can handle the z, just a couple more cams to deal with, if you are talking accessory belts then this is a whole different game, with all the accessory belts off, you have to then pull the fan and clutch assy, then the timing belt covers, then you set the engine at tdc, relieve the tension on the tensioner and pull the belt, replace the camseals, crank seal, water pump, thermostant, tensioner, studs, idlers etc suggested at your milage, and put the belt back on careful to keep the cams all in line, release the tensioner and put it all back together
