^ Yes. if you're on a budget, get the crank pulley. There is no downside to the underdrive version (you'll even use your stock belt with it), unless you are (1) supercharging or (2) bumping a huge, demanding sound system.
We are a preferred dealer for NST products: http://shop.microimageonline.com/NST...L-NST09010.htm

If I remember correctly, NST is not an official vendor on YW anymore, so you'll have to try to go directly to their website and contact them through that...
Most people have had very positive experiences with NST, Mike has been very patient explaining things, emailing additional instructions, etc...

The last email i received was 5 months ago. NST told me that my pulley was replaced and will deliver it back to me soon. And during these 5 months, i keep on waiting. Nothing was delivered and I sent tons of emails to their official website asking them where is it and there's no reply from them... |

nstonaim is his AIM username. I haven't been on in quite a while, so I don't know if he's ever there anymore or not. You can give it a try though.

Does it affect the timing of the engine?

I thought since they are the official wholesaler, nothing will go wrong. But i was wrong. If this is their way of doing business, ignoring internet users like us, i guess there is nothing we can do. Perhaps i can lodge a complaint against them using legal means, since i got the full emails of our conversation and receipts of my local courier.

Long time no see YW! As many of you know, and have on your cars, we set up design and development on Yaris pulleys back in 2007 and ran the original GB here: http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3239 Unfortunately, due to lack of demand and slow market conditions, we had to stop mass production on our Yaris pulleys and make them available only as special order items, a couple years ago. We are considering a Dec/Jan group buy on a run of crank pulleys, at a discounted group buy price, if the community is interested. All pulleys would be the same lightweight aluminum we've always used and a special run of colors would be made available: red, blue, black, gold, purple. Would you guys and girls be interested in such an offer? |

Mike, have you made any substantial changes to your designs? There are quite a few broken NST pulleys (crank and water pump) out there now with the old design.
Maybe start here: http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/sho...ken+nst+pulley with some customer service.
