changing EK9 timing belt

[ajule2380]

Hi,
juz asking I wanted to change EK9 timing belt and my place only sell the timing belt(other sport brand) but can't find the camshaft oil seal and tensioner bearing.so can I use EK4 B16A camshaft oil seal and tensioner bearing?currently milage 90k....still safe for driving?

Not sure about that one. the hole b16b head is said to be a superior unit so weather these parts will fit the bill is hard to say, but i dont think they would present a problem. As long as they fit properly and they dont look worn before u put them on they will b ok.
Can n e one else back this up?

yes the oil seal will fit fine but i wouldnt be puting old parts on a b16b it just aint worth it. im sure the tensioner will be the same but do remember the ek9 belt is 2 teeth longer than the ek4 belt
