ok well im looking to buy lighweight pullyes for my car and i cant seem to find any for my ka24de and im wondering if sr20det pulleys would fit becaue i type in the year or my car and sr20 pulleys come up so im wondering if they will fit on my ka.

also im having som problems with my clutch i think it might be going even though i just got the car but the problem is going from 2nd to third it sometimes locks up and doesnt go in i think it might be the forks but im not exactly sure and recently while driving i push the clutch all the way to the floor and i can still feel the gears grinding going into the gears but mainly third and im not sure what that problem is but i think its the clutch i also have a stage 5 clutch in any sugeestions to what the problem might be?

clutch:

under your dash attached to the clutch pedel is an ajuster screw and locking nut...look to see what position your locking nut and screw are in..you may just need to ajust the pedle..all it ajust's is the position that the pedle makes its push on the piston inside the pump..you can ajust it for a high engagement or a lower pedle engagement...its up to personal feel...try that first..then get back to us.

light weight pullys:

i myself dont recomend lightend crank pullys..other pullys shure...but not the crank pully..as it acts like a vibration damper on most vehicles...if you remove the damper effect..your engine would be eaten alive by the vibration starting with main bearings and rod bearings leading to an epic failure...this of course is just my humble opinion...

what ever you decide..good luck.

ok well my friend adjusted a bolt to my pedal im not sure which one he messed with but for the time being he made my clutch alittle better but then we put fluid in my mastercylinder and now my clutch catches all the way at the top and it seems like my clutch isnt engaged all the way like when im driving it jerks randomly and starts dropping rpms up and down and its stalled a few times while i was actually driving and i had to pop start it im not sure what i have to adjust to fix that
