Can you feel a difference in power over the stockers?

Are they the same diameter as stock?

slow s13, give us a review. If they were about half the weight of the stcok ones, I wonder how much the new ones with the holes are?

price isn't bad. i guess the structure of it "can" break but what's it made of? im guessing it should be fully balanced before they are sold? A buddy of mine got a set of megan racing strut bars that was clean looking but the structure of it was very fragile. you can bed the bar over your legs easily.

I didnt notice any gains in power, I doubt there is any. The reason I got them is my engine didnt come with any accesories so I was using the ka alternator and pulley so that forced me to run a belt one rib smaller. It worked fine but I wanted to have the right shiz on there.

They where of ok quality there where a few burs on the pulley grooves so I just hit em up with a file. Also Ive heard some people say you have to grind the ka alternator case to use an Sr pulley. With these I didnt have to do anything it bolted right on. I realy wasnt into paying the 200 bucks the greddys run mainly to get a alternator pulley.

pullies really don't do anything on turbo cars... they are just for looks.

I am probably who said to grind the case. Beats me why I had to. It very well may be because I might not have a OEM Nissan alternator. I can't remember if it was OEM or not. Hell maybe I flipped the pully or something stupid but I haven't had any problems out of it.

That's mostly true; the water pump, p/s, and especially the alternator pulley won't do jack for any engine. Dropping over half the weight from the crank pulley will make a decent difference.

Any reduction in rotation mass will net gains, whether or not you feel it is besides the point. Whether or not it is worth the money is a whole different subject

i had them on my car just because they looked cool

trust me they don't do anything. your engine may be operating more efficiently, but then again it may not. with turbo cars pullies do not do much.

but if you like how they look that's reason enough to get them
