GReddy 13514509 Extreme V-Belt – Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S & Toyota 86 FA20

Upgrade Your FA20 Accessory Drive With GReddy’s Reinforced Performance Belt

The Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S, and Toyota 86 were built for drivers who appreciate lightweight handling, high-revving engines, and an engaging driving experience. But even the best FA20 performance build depends on reliable engine accessories.

The GReddy 13514509 Extreme V-Belt is a reinforced accessory drive belt engineered specifically for the first-generation Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S, and Toyota 86 equipped with the 2.0-liter FA20 boxer engine.

Manufactured using durable EPDM rubber, this performance belt is designed to improve resistance to heat, wear, and deterioration while maintaining dependable power transmission to engine-driven accessories.

Whether you’re replacing an aging factory belt, refreshing your FA20 engine, or maintaining a modified 86-platform vehicle, the GReddy Extreme V-Belt offers a performance-focused replacement.

Why Upgrade to the GReddy 13514509 V-Belt?

The FA20 accessory belt drives essential engine components, including the alternator and water pump. A deteriorated belt can produce squealing, slipping, or loss of accessory operation.

GReddy developed its reinforced V-belt to address the demands of performance-oriented driving while retaining the proper belt configuration for compatible FA20 applications.

Why EPDM Construction Matters

Modern accessory drive belts must tolerate constant bending, temperature changes, and mechanical loading.

EPDM rubber is widely used in automotive belt manufacturing because it provides excellent resistance to heat, ozone, and environmental deterioration.

GReddy’s reinforced belt uses this material to support dependable accessory operation under demanding conditions.

According to GReddy, its belt construction also reduces weight compared with the factory belt, potentially improving its ability to follow changes in engine speed.

However, this does not mean the belt independently produces measurable horsepower gains.

For FA20 owners, the primary benefits are durability, wear resistance, and reliable accessory drive performance.

Signs Your FA20 Accessory Belt Needs Replacement

Even a performance belt eventually requires replacement.

Common warning signs include persistent belt squealing, rib damage, frayed edges, glazing, or visible deterioration.

A failing belt can compromise accessory operation, potentially affecting charging and engine cooling.

When replacing the belt, inspect the automatic tensioner, idler pulleys, and accessory pulleys for damage or misalignment.

A new belt won’t correct a seized pulley or defective tensioner, regardless of how impressive the GReddy logo looks.

Installation and Maintenance Tips

Replacing the accessory belt on an FA20 requires releasing tension from the automatic belt tensioner and routing the new belt correctly around the accessory pulleys.

Before installation, compare the replacement belt with the original and confirm the 6PK2075 specification.

Check the pulley grooves for contamination, damage, or unusual wear.

After installation, verify that the belt is fully seated in each pulley and operates without abnormal noise or tracking problems.

Follow the factory service procedure and avoid working near moving belts or pulleys while the engine is running.
