After the CNC machine shop finished the toe links and trailing arms for me, I asked them if they can make some pulleys and they said "sure".



The pulley kit will be made from 6061 aluminum. It comes with two belts and it's a bolt on. You will not need to take off the eccentric shaft bolt to put the pulley on. It will be the same shape as the stock crank pulley so it will be lighter than some of the other aftermarket ones. The pulley will be one piece instead of stock two piece design.



The target price is $200 for the pulley with the belt. You save about $50-60 from the regular price



Spec:

material: 6061 CNC machined aluminum

contents: one crank pulley, two belts

color: silver

size: 25% smaller than the stock one



I need to have at least 5 orders to get this started so please let me know either by posting on this thread or email me at rotaryextreme@aol.com. Thank you.

It can be done but the stock one is made of plastic so it's very light already. So you want me to make a bigger one or keep it the stock size? If I make a bigger one and you also use it with the power pulley, it might be underdriven too much.

its pointless to underdrive the powersteering, but it would be cool to have a aluminum pulley instead of the plastic, just for durability issues.

just polish the stock p/s pulley Or get rid of power steering all together, It's more fun that way.
