Is a light weight aluminum crank pulley worth it?! Today I install the light weight pulley kit from Z1 motorsports and find out! It looks great, it's affordable and while it wasn't the biggest difference, I do think it made a slight improvement to response.
Here's a link to the kit if you're interested!

I would say your crank pulley is the one thing you WANT weight on because it’s like a damper for your crank. Your crank twists like a spring when combustion happens and if it’s not controlled it can snap under certain rpm’s and load, I’d look at a super damper or fluid damper, but all the other pulleys I’d say are safe to go lightweight

@tdhbb 9 месяцев назад

I agree with this to a point. Vqs specifically were designed with really well balanced cranks from factory. It's one of the reasons these engines are rock solid. But it could definetly still cause issues. It would be interesting to see how different pulleys affect the crank on a vq tho!!!

@tonycrispin 9 месяцев назад

I’ve for sure heard this side of the argument and it makes sense, that’s why I mentioned I’m unsure about longevity at the end of the video. Time will tell if it’s an issue or not!

@BriZee33 9 месяцев назад

I’d be worried about it with drifting but not most other motorsports only because it’s high rpm and high load for a long time, plus clutch kicks too, but if you’re willing to risk it and do some experimenting, then I’d say why not lol!

@@tonycrispindon’t worry the vq crank is plenty strong enough for this pulley mod this has been researched and checked before that rubber really dosent help

I have one on my auto G35. Its a small, but definitely noticeable improvement, IMO.

@tonycrispin 5 месяцев назад

Yea not life changing but noticeable!

@driftingpsycho86 9 месяцев назад

Add a few more ground cables from the battery and chassis to engine will definitely help with engine response.

@tonycrispin 9 месяцев назад

I’ve heard that as well, I was going to add a few when I relocate the battery. Good idea!

I don’t have this installed but I could imagine it does work ,when you go from dual mass to a lightweight flywheel you can tell the huge difference this should be the same

@tonycrispin 9 месяцев назад

Yea a light weight flywheel is a must, that was one of the first mods I did, makes a huge difference!

What can't you install or fix ? I think you can do fix everything from cars to veins. Take care and happy holidays.

Haha that’s part of the fun taking on challenges and figuring it out along the way! Happy holidays to you as well!

@wirekat 9 месяцев назад

Do you already have a lightweight flywheel? I assume your tuner already eliminated any throttle lag. Major "foot" pounds of ugga dugga there. I prefer my Milwaukee impact which has never refused to loosen any bolt but you have to pull the radiator, blah, blah, blah.

@ryanmcburrows8051 9 месяцев назад

This is a valid question... I wondering the same thing.. I've heard you should not use both at the same time

@tonycrispin 9 месяцев назад

Yea I have a lightweight flywheel!

@wirekat 9 месяцев назад

@@ryanmcburrows8051 Pros and cons but for a drift car mostly pros. Maybe daily driving suffers and you have less inertia when launching but dyno figures show modest gains in HP.
