Right between the cam gears up top (you'll have to take the top cover off) just push down with one finger (or maybe two) on the belt and see how much up and down play you have. SHould not be zinging tight.

Im actaually at this stage of putting my timing belt back on. So basicly there isnt a set torque to have it set? Basicly by feel? I have the service manual and it doesnt even say.
Traction is optional, so are zipties

still getting a whine, seems to get a bit louder when warming up. An inch of play between cams seems too loose to me can anyone else back this b/c I am nervouse to loosen it that much haha!
OMG this is the same problem i am having on my build. Got it back together last night and started it and same thing, it sounds like a supercharger. My belt is really tight and i am going to try to loosen it a bit. I got my belt, tensioner and spring and idler off nismoparts.com. If it still wines , i might try my old tensioner that is still in good shape. I ran the car for about 20min to seat the piston rings and it didn't go away. I first thought it was my water pump but it is brand new.
