You will need a smaller belt, one off a UK model starlet should do.

You'll need a non A/C power steering belt (uk starlet one should do the trick)
There is a sensor in one of the pipes on the passenger side that must either be left connected and tucked out of the way or you need to remove it and bridge the connections.

I think an ep91 doesn't need wires bridged unlike the ep82. I never had to bridge mine.

No problem, I'd be interested to know if you have to bridge the ep91 connectors as I've only ever done this to a GT.

anyone confirm that 99364-20920 L=920 belt is fine when removing ac from my V? also whats the best method to remove ac? removing front bumper or you can work with bumper in place and just move the main radiator slightly backwards to make way for the ac rad to go out from beneath the car?

well thats the first thing to do jason.. then if you are goin dumping the rest just cut up the pipes..(i didnt cut pipes but took alot longer to remove) onces pipes are removed i just loosened the water rad brackets and took out the a/c rad from behind it.. remove fan on a/c rad first tho..other way is to remove water rad.. once pipes and rad is out take the pump out.. watch out for trapped gas in pump.. not 100% sure on the code for the belt but a non a/c starlet belt will do but make sure it a power steering one also..

its a bit fiddly but will come out eventually.. just reomove grill if you still have it on the bumper for easier access.. theres a good few bolts along the piping but you will find them... you may have to remove water bottle to get pipe work out.. once finished your engine will thank you for the better cooling...lol
