After reviewing some threads, I see you can use 07+ sentra lightweight pulleys. Of course I have a few questions, and hopefully those with the OBX pulleys for the sentra can chime in, but those with lightweight pulleys can feel free to reply as well.

I noticed a couple things different about the pulleys besides the looks. The OBX pulley claims to be 15 ounces, which is only a shade under 1 lb (0.9xxx) while the Stillen pulley is 1.10 lbs. So being that the OBX pulley is lighter, i assume it must perform a little better. Hows the power feeling with the Sentra OBX Pulleys? Of course with that said, I heard plenty of good things from Stillens pulleys, but its pretty much twice the price which is kind of a bummer.

Secondly, some threads mentioned the Sentra Spec V pulley fitting our cars. Is there a difference between the regular model Sentra lightweight pulley compared to the Spec V's pulley? I also assume those would be the same.

Thanks in advance to any help I can get =)

essentially no difference on a 2.5 aftermarket or stock... certainly a few ounces will have no effect whatsoever!

taking that into consideration, i have the stillen pulley

So it has more of an performance effect on a 3.5 than a 2.5?

yes... based upon SIZE... a 3.5 pulley is "under driven" the 2.5 pulley is just lighter
