It's 140 plus S/H for the UDP. The original group deal is 140 shipped with 10 buyers. The other pulley's don't exist yet.

Sorry, I cant get the price that low, I am not making profit on these ones even. My company is still new so I am trying to get my name out there. But I do promise that my parts are much higher quality and well as much lighter.

You are correct my friend.

For both pulleys you are looking at an approximate $150-240. That is a very rough estimate, so all 3 pulleys will be under $380. Just the UDP alone provides a lot of power, so Group Deal on that will still be free shipping + however much discount I can give you guys if you get enough people to buy.

Thanks for the interest

Thats really not a deal. You can get one for 80 dollars, that cheap one I forgot the name, and you cna get the unordox on ebay fro 125. I am not trying to be a party crasher or anything but I am cheap. Also is this pulley oem size, if so, I might be in on one, I don't want to change belts, thats a hassle becuase I don't know which ones to get. Can you spray paint these you they look like oem ones so they don't void my warranty?

$80 bucks is a great deal, I cant beat that, but keep in mind that part is just run on the lathe and brouched. Mine is done on the cnc mill as well that is why its weight is reduced. Yes you can spray paint the pulley to make it look OEM, just dont spray where the belts sit.

Well when I make stuff, I usually make a lot, but right now I havent sold more then a few products, so I cant afford to keep making a bunch of stuff, if he gets some guys on the xterra forums to buy like 20+ then I can afford to do it because I will have pre-orders. Which covers a bunch of costs involved.

And the group buy here is just for stock alternator and stock idler pulleys. I am not making a stock crank shaft pulley because I wouldnt have an easy time selling it.

Thanks

Hey Nick. Did you get a chance to stop by the dealership and pickup the OEM pulleys yet to start measurements? When will orders begin, and then 1-2 months later, payments sent?

Do you have to make many of them? Can't you just make one set at a time?... or do you need to order the materials in bulk?

Just make a set of the 3-pulleys & sell them here for whatever price you feel is fair. Someone will buy it & like it... next thing you know, more people are asking for them. If you don't have to start a group deal, then don't.

I think maybe 4 or 5. But a lot of people want dynos and stuff, that I cannot provide due to the fact I dont own a Maxima.

Too bad. I'd offer to dyno your prototypes myself but I already have a lighter crankshaft pulley now. Wait a minute. If you felt inclined to go ahead with the proto-units I'd be willing to go back to stock, dyno, then install all 3 pulley's, and dyno again.

I would also offer to do a before and after dyno if you produced the other pulleys. I do not currently have an underdrive pulley and could do a before and after with all three of your pulleys. By the way I checked and the 02 Altima has the same alternator and power steering pulley part number as the 02-03 Maxima. Not sure about the 03 Altima or the 04 Maxima. Also the 350Z may have the same pulleys.

Come on Nick, take a chance. You could come out with a product for the Maxima and the Altima that no one else has. You should decide quickly though, because Unorthodox is coming out with a pulley set for the 350Z in April.

I don't know how much horsepower a pulley set would produce for our cars but heres some threads on what the V6 Accord guys are experiencing. Just some food for thought.
