Message	Last month I bought a 90TT with 54,000 original miles and the original TBelt...First thing I did was replace the TBelt and associated pieces (spoke to several Nssan dealers and they recommended it)...Anyway after the tech was done he showed me the old Tbelt and it looked brand new....could have went for another 15 years...anyway still glad i got it done...
