Sounds like you need a new tensioner.

BTW, please refrain from using the word "Jap". JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) is just as accurate and is less offensive.

no that is not right. the price is about 25-30 bucks according to se-r.net. but i dotn know where they are getting that price from. www.nissanautosports.com (http://www.nissanautosports.com) wants 53 for it, but shipping will probly bump it to 60. maybe you should just go through the dealer? the part number is 13070-2J200. sorry bro i wish i could be of more assistance http://www.sr20deforum.com/NonCGI/frown.gif
