Can Superior Unarmed Strike and Monk's Belt give me an effective +9 levels to determine my strike damage over and above my character level?

DM's call.

I believe that they both operate off of your "actual" unarmed strike, so one can't boost the other, you would only take the "best".

Some people allow them to stack though.

A lot of people seem to think so online, too. Knowing my DM he'll outright say 'no'.. but I'll see how I go.

There's no reason in the rules for them not to stack.

Remember though, the Monk's Unarmed Attack damage caps at level 20.
