Go UR pulleys they are slightly ligher at 2lbs due to the holes machined out. AMS are a bunch of copy cat cowards that **** on Z community.

importpartspro.com also sales ASP pulleys with belt setconceptzperformance.com sales UR pulleys with belt set

I bought an Edge Racing UD pulley from CZ. It is $95. I don't give a crap about drilled holes. You are paying 2x as much for the UR UD pulley to save ounces.

Nope, but I've met the guys who own AMS and I've seen their products used on a wide variety of Z cars with good results. I'm actually considering picking up the pulley set from them this winter to run on my own car. I would run more of their stuff on my Z32 but most work is already done to it.

I went with the ASP pulley with belts along with the OD water pulley.

Ain't no way I'm paying double for the UR.

Oh! You mean N/A to TT conversion. I thought you meant 2+0 to 2+2 conversion lol. I can see why JDM Z32 got confused.

Yeah that would be wild adding two seats lol. I like customizing but that would be ridiculous. I will change my signature as to not confuse anyone, just for clarity I have a 4 seater twin turbo.

I was actually looking into getting new pulleys aswell. I saw a set on Z1 motoreports and conceptz for AMS. I have little experience and few mods, intake and some piping and exhaust. Looking to get a little bit more out of the car and heard pulleys make a difference. Any advice would be appreciated.
