One of my buddies said a harmonic balancer is needed to put this on. Is this true?? I saw a few posts about engine vibration and was wondering if maybe not using the balancer had anything to do with that.

These pulleys do not have a dampening ring,which will lead to more engine vibration down low. Will it have an effect on engine bearing life? Only time will tell I guess.

Its my experience with toyota you can't kill these things if you wanted to,so I would not be surprized if the engine still went 200k miles + anyways.

I am not trying to dirt NST's product,as I have seen tons and tons of people very happy with their product and actualy not one complaint. I just think people should be informed on all aspects of the modifications they are doing to their cars.
