different crank pulley

whatl happen if we used the crank pulley from a toyota for the single serpentine belt setup like i have

the pulley is 4 ribbed and ways 3 times as less as the one im using now

will this mess something up internally?

Ummmm your car has 2 belts, one of which is 4 ribbed? Next question is will it fit? See I'm glad I got and unorthodox UDP back in the day. Maybe you should by my old car for the UDP.

Yeah if you have stock belt setup, then no way it will work for the reason maximase86 said. But if I remember right, you have a different belt setup with only one belt now. I don't know specifically if it would work, however one reason it may screw things up is if the diameter of the pulley is different than the stock pulley. If the diameter is smaller, your accessories, power steering, alternator, etc, get driven at a higher RPM. Could lead to over spinning the alternator or other accessories. Larger diameter means a lower rpm, undercharging the car etc. UDP designed there's to still work properly. Depending on the size of the Toyota one, it may create issues.

i don't think it would bother the crank or anything iirc vg30 it is internally balanced so as long as you have it balanced neutrally

well the pulley isint smaller than the origonal same width and height just a lot lighter as you can see in the fotos

here it is on top of a 3rd gen pulley(thats the motor i have in the max with the 300zx pulley)





and i did a lil sometin for maximase86 hahaha!

flowmaster muffler w/ carbon fiber tip, and 2.5 all the way out from the cat, but now that i think about it the downpipe is 2.5 as well so that makes it 2.5 all the way from the motor







the flowmaster is hella quiet after 3000 rpms and has a good tone to it
yall better step your game up!lol!

Yeah, I'm working on stepping up my game. You'll be playing with 359whp of fire if you aren't careful.

And me driving: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCFiK...elated&search=



Hey with the pulley, your going from a 3 belt setup to a 1 belt setup...I see one little problem with this...how are you going to get all your accessories to line up with just this single belt pulley. Also a red muffler?????

I don't know if that crank pulley will work for you. I do know that when I bought my car it was only running with one belt. The guy who owned it before me un hooked the AC compressor and was running everything else on one belt. It seemed to work ok.

Whats the deal with the red muffler?

You should hear it in person...it's much louder.

Hey, you should ditch the A/C compressor...no point having it there.

Sorry for your math error, but the accessories would be driven at a slower RPM if he crank pulley is smaller!!!

Oops, sorry. I was thinking about it for the accessory pulley itself and not the crank pulley.
