this past weekend i got my udp and i went to install it, got everything taken after and i couldnt get the stock crank pulley off, i used an impact gun that didnt work then i tried it by hand used a strap wrench and a braker bar that failed also, whats the deal?
i called nissan and they said its a normal bolt not left handed or anything

i put a metal pipe around my breaker bar, so that it extended to rest on the ground. then i turned my car (NOT STARTED) to break the bolt loose.

are you auto or 5 speed?

If your auto you have to lock the fly wheel or else you will never get that bolt off.

u sure? that's how i did it. i even have a video of it. here's a pic:


you can check page 4 of my cardomain, that may help. just crank your car (but don't let it start). the starter should have enough power to break the bolt loose.
