Those of you guys that have UR pulleys. Any problems? How many miles do you have on the pulleys? I'm debating getting them but still a bit hesitant. Looking for long terms updates/feedback. Thanks.

 

over 3000. great!! I say buy them

 

at least 2k, no problems, 2 track events since. Next is flywheel...

 

8K and going. No problems.

 

3K and going strong. Not even a hiccup. I also have a 400 watt amp in my car and I notice no power drop or anything. Then again, I am not playing that loud and I am certainly not using anywhere near 400 watts. With my current setup, I would peak at 160 I think.

At any rate, great mod, no problems, and an easy install (with an 18" breaker bar).

 

i have the crank pulley and personally know a lot of maximar guys who love em, too. they've been puttin em on their cars way before ours even came out.

 

what kind of gains have you gotten with UR pulleys

 

u won't see big concrete gains, on a dyno anyway. it's kinda like a lightened flywheel. just lightens the amount of weight the crank has to turn. more noticeable in lower gears. should increase your trap a couple mph's and lower your e.t. a tenth or 2. not a major deal, but it only cost me about 225 bucks total for the pulley and belts; installed it myself with the help of a friend.

 

I was thinking about getting the entire pulley kit, even if I dont see many significant gains....I think the engine would look better

 

to each his own. i never understood the whole looks thing of a pulley swap. i just got the black one; oh well.

 

True True....I just like that added looks
my friend did a pulley swap on his R/T dakota and saw some nice changes.

 

BIG SHOW: Wouldn't the stock belts work if you're only replacing the crank pulley? What do I need to get then? Thanks.

 

the pulley is smaller, so u'll need smaller belts. the instructions have the belt sizes needed, and u can do a search in the forum for the specs.

 

courtesy nissan has them listed on there site. tells the part # and everything. you can get them from there or buy them at the local parts store.

HEY EVERYBODY - slight hijack of thread. I have a vendor willing to do a (cough) group (cough) buy (cough) on the ur pullies. The crank goes for $200 DELIVERED and the set goes for $300 DELIVERED. Any color you want and you will buy directly from the vendor and you all DEFINITELY know him! If interested PM me for details. I have 6-7 already and we need 3-4 more for the pricing. UR does not allow (cough) (cough) pricing so that is NOT what I am doing here, get it!

If this gets back to UR Pullies I will disavow (is that a word?) having any knowledge of this (cough) (cough)!


we need 3-4 more.....

 

Had the crank pulley for a week.

Noticably quicker revs ... rev matching for downshifts seems so much easier. 1st gear doesn't seem to lurch as bad if you step off the gas (the wind-down is smoother)

No downsides I can think of .. install was simple once you get break the bolt loose.. although installation for the whole set could be a pain.

 

all_bark, got your PM- Put me down for the crank pulley.

Everyone else- thanks for the input. Still interested if anyone else has anything to add.

 

I'm convinced! I'm getting pulleys!

 

I would love to get these also.. BUT I saw on a thread (dont remember where) where cars where getting pretty beatup with these things.. Saying something about vibrations or something.. WoW it was soooo long ago I cant remember. I think im going to wait till at least the spring to see what happens

 

Get the pullys your gonna love it

 

just as i was going to order my own set of Pulleys..this thread appears....the newbie is in...

all i have to say is that this board is great....all of you have great ideas and everyone helps each other out...no one is ever looking out for their OWN interest....

sorry to change the subject...but i needed to praise you guys just a lil....
ALL_Bark...check your PM..thanks peeps
