UR Crank Pulley...Warranty Safe?
just a quickie before i buy....if its installed buy someone that specializes in Z's (Palm Nissan, FL, has thier own perforamance shop)...will the crank/pulley be reliable i.e. not break? and second how will it affect my warranty? if i get the pulley in black can i fool someone by the naked eye and say 'I dont have pullies'?

I had my pulleys installed by Performance Nissan and they said it wouldn't affect my warranty

Murrman,
Can you tell the difference on your pulleys? I've though about getting either intake or pulleys most people say go with the pulleys since the intake wont add much power other than the whistle.
I live in West Covina about 5 minute drive from performance nissan. also what did you pay forthe pulleys?

I looked around a lot. Ebay had them for $340 and Perfomance Nissan had them $325. I had to pay tax but I least I didn't have to wait for shipping.

No problems, except that you'll want to drive your Z more and faster than before.

there can be problems with aftermarket pullies, especially since they usually are never balanced with your motor, and they dont have any harmonic balancers in them. You can have crank failure or problems later down the line.

Jeff and Jason at Perfomance Nissan highly recommended these UR pulleys and they said that the Z's engine is internally balanced.
They even said that it could lengthen the life of the engine because of the lighter weight of the pulleys.

but does it have a harmonic balancer?? an engine can give off noise that can cause vibrations, its not something we can hear, but you can get the effect of it. It can cause alot of premature wear because of the vibrations. It can also cause crank failure over time.
