Just trying to keep the noise down with the hfc's. my car stays in a crowded neighborhood and im notorious for coming and going in the middle of the night.


anyone with a shop in here? i'd like to get an estimate for installing a pully kit along with the mrev2 and spacer.

 

You're in BR? Corr could do it I'm sure or someone may be willing to help, PM El Verdugo if you want a quote.

I'll be dynoing and adding my mods and dynoing again

lol the Nismo exhaust goes from the quietest to one of loudest exhausts with anything besides stock cats.

 

chopping ammo?

 

hahaha. do it.

 

yea "helping me do it" isn't an option. I would do it all myself if I was home. i'm on the other side of the world though.

and when i do come home in november it will only be for 30 days. i don't want to waste any of those days under the hood.

i want to spend those days cruising and getting some track time. **** i still need to learn how to control my drifts.

 

Installing those three things would take less than half a day probably.

 

Come to lafayette for a day and i can help knock those things out.

 

I work in the NEW BestBuy Mobile. In reality it's a cell phone store but we carry more than just 1 provider. We will be opening up BestBuy Mobile stores out side of BestBuy (like shopping malls and what not) but as for now they are just inside of BestBuy.

It's pretty tight, no more sending customers back to their providers store for data transfers, account changes, insurance claims, ect. We do it all in house. We even have our own repair center now and give out loaner phones when it's out (with a 150 deposit) so you are never without a phone.

As for Verizon, we'll probably be picking them back up as soon as the Verizon/Alltel merger is finalized. We still sell their aircards though! So hit me up if you need one of those!

 

i was using those rims too haha

 

i'll keep you guys posted on all of the installs, especially you CBR900! just remember these post come November.... lol

just waiting on a price conformation on the mrev2 and spacer and it'll be on it's way to the house.

next on the shopping list will be the unorthodox 3 piece pully kit and berk hfc.


no one interested in an OEM drivers seat or steering wheel ?

 

Pulley kit is a waste IMO.

 

are you sure it's a waste?

when talking about a NA engine, I'm thinking I should do everything possible to squeeze as much performance as I can out of this engine. I'm also thinking the pully's will only compliment future upgrades, especially if i decide to ever go FI.

Granted, most of the things I have are Nismo and I know Nismo is not squeezing as much performance out of the engine as other bolt-ons would and, blah blah blah....

but if can make a valid case for thinking they are a waste, please do.

 

Id just do the main pulley not the whole kit imo.

 

Id do FD before Pulley =P

 

Crank pulley is understandable... all the other pulleys are not.

I'd also recommend not going with an underdrive pulley because there is nothing noticeable about it and if you do go FI... you can't use underdriven pulleys with a SC. Not saying that you'll go SC but it's always good to keep your options opened

 

FD ?

ok ok, good valid points. no need to waste effort on a whole kit if the only thing making money is the crank pully.

 

Final drive. It'll probably be the bigger difference maker but it would be expensive compared to other mods.

 

true dat.

Pulley is a good upgrade and I have no idea about underdriven vs not.
I got the underdriven crank pulley and installed a sound system and now I have a dead battery.

but who knows the battery is about 5 years old /shrug

 

The decrease in diameter shows no noticeable difference

 

maybe i should do alot more research before i start throwing parts in it.

the mrev2 and spacer are about to be on order though. those seem pretty solid.

i've got so many electronic mods in mine that it would surely kill my battery if i went with a smaller underdrive pully.
