I used an H22 head but here is what I have for you at a moments notice because I am at work right now and about to enter a meeting:

Originally G23V thread I started on here:

The one on HT that may answer your questions:

You can always take a string and wrap it around where the T-belt would go. By doing this you are measuring the belt length. With the newfound knowledge of belt length you can go to your local autoparts store and locate the belt that most closely matches that string length. I have done this before and ended up getting 2 that were within the area and ended up just taking back the one that I didn't need since the other would fit. Make sure you get the belt with the correct amount of grooves as well. Those threads above should be able to answer your question. Let me know if you need more help.

Keep tuning,

my suggestion as of right now: trim the gsr belt. save some birthday money and buy a custom belt in a few months.

this will get your car out of the shop, become the first working g23 in a 6th gen, provide a foothold into future tuners and let you drive it.

Go for it. Its been in the shop for a while now, try it just to get it out. Youll be a legend for being the 1st 6thgen. When you have the money for a cusom belt, make sure you get 2 so youll have 1 extra. We wanna see this bad boy on the road.
