Unorthodox Racing Pulley Question

Unorthodox Racing Pulley Question
I'm sorry. i'm sure this subject has been beaten to death - but i couldn't find an exact match in searching.
So I am considering a set of Unorthodox Racing Pulleys for my Z (04 Touring, 6 speed) .. i've heard different things - such as these are bad for the internals - they put a higher draw on the alternator ...
I guess I just want some opinions. I have the opportunity to buy the set of three brand new for a great price. Anyone use these, good experiences, bad?
my only mod at this point is a JWT clutch/lightweight flywheel.

I had a set of these on my 350z, I guess through hitting the throttle a lot, it notched the pulley at the key hole and oil began pushing through the hole... I am not saying it blew my motor, but I am not saying it didn't... I actually made a nice desk ornamant out of the crank and alternator pulleys though!!

^check your local auto parts store...im pretty sure Unorthodox usually provides you with part numbers for the required belts when you buy them...look on the instructions or contact UR directly.

Belts must be changed after every two years as rubber may harden enough to cause damage to the pulley.
Keep the receipts of belt purchases as they are required in case of any warranty claims sent to UR.
