i just changed my belts but in the morning i still get a squeel out of them. Could one of my pulley's be worn down, or the bearing inside the part where the pulley mounts to? this is on an sr20 redtop

If you just changed your belts and they squeak, usually you just need to tighten them a little more. Don't over do it. Just go little by little.

Or you overtightened it.

Just get the FSM and check it out. Much better then screwing something up.
