No, because anyone that wants horsepower that badly can just remove that pulley and get a shorter belt.


No, honestly there are no plans as of yet, but as long as we keep supporting NST... NST will keep supporting us. Never know.

Thanks for the answer Mike (and Chino!) re: A/C pulley.

And with regards to demand driving the aftermarket support, now that its warm out I'm very much looking forward to installing my cherry red NST crank pulley. Just wanna get it on the dyno first for a stock run. AANNNDDD I can't wait for the other pulleys to be released this summer... I'll be in that group buy too!

Will there be plans for a pulley package? Would it be benificail to wait for the pkg or should I just snag the crank pulley now?

And do you Anodize in Black, if not can you send me one not anodize, and I can get it done here locally

I would say to anyone who really wants the Crank pulley to get it now. It is well worth it, and the money you give them helps fund R&D for future parts for our cars. NST prices are extremely competitive. Also, I noticed a bump up in my MPG, so you can start saving gas money as soon as you install.

The more you guys show support NOW, the sooner we can bring you other products. The more you guys wait, the longer it will take us.

At this time we offer these pulleys in Red, Blue, and Graphite Gray. I high suggest staying away from pulleys that are not anodized, as this is a very important part of the building process.

Unfortunately there are no plans for a flywheel at the moment, but we have a few other goodies coming your way very soon, so stay tuned


Thanks again everyone for your great interest and support, we certainly do appreciate it.

I prefer the look of anodized pulleys, but it has nothing to do with the "building" process, it's a finishing and largely cosmetic step.

**Step 1: RE-draw the stock pulley in CAD or Solid Works
Step 2: Machine out of solid block of 6061 Aluminum
Step 3: Put on car and test- If OK repeat 1,2 and go to 4
Step 4: Anodize so it looks pretty for a while!

Step 5: Sell the $hiT out of these because it is the best bang for the buck!!

**Note, this is MY patent RandD process...

The only reason I would want one NOT anodized is so that I can get it anodized in the color I want, since you do not offer black, and I have a guy that does it here in town for me

Sounds very good sir! This type of MPG gain should be typical for most Yaris owners provided they don't go WOT all day. It becomes though with the extra throttle response though

Do we have any other owners with similar results?

Is your Yaris a New generation or old like the echo Hb??

I am very interested about this information becasue my car is a 1.3L 2nd generation (like the one on the signature)

Other thing is that my country is very hot so we always use air conditioner
if i get to install the pulley...will it affect in any way?

Thanks in advance

I installed my pulley today. Nice little bump in power.

I got a check engine light the first time I turned on the car. I think this was because I turned the engine over with the ratchet while the key was in the ON position BEFORE I started the car. I scanned the code and is was for a crank position sensor malfunction. I cleared the code and the check engine light has not come back on.

Just throwing this out there in case anyone else has this problem. Just clear the code and you should be fine.
