Is this what a timing belt that is about to break looks like? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

if you can see any cracks or sections of belt material missing it needs to go. grab the belt and twist it a little by hand because you cant always see cracks especially when the belts on our setups dont run on the backside at any point like serpentine belts on larger setups on newer cars with only one belt and a spring loaded tensioner.
