FYI its the water pump pulley.

*MAD DOG* · 06-22-2010, 11:56 AM

It's strange there has been no reply from Mike from NST. I've sent him a pm and a pm on facebook. Has anyone else tried to contact him about this?

This is something I can't stand. You would at least think he would reply in some way, even if it's a simple "We're looking into the problem.".

Damn that is crazy now I'm worried about my WP pulley because the belt is making a grove into it and I'm afraid its going to give in any day now, but my friend is a mechanic he said it's fine.

If you take the time to review this very thread, you can see how Mike always answers all posts. Just give it some time.

I'm not slamming Mike. I know he answers questions about his products. Normally this is done promptly and within a day. This time no response as yet. Maybe he's on holiday or something. I'd just like too see what he says about this issue.

From what I've been told we don't need a dampener on these pullys. But that pulley that's come apart looks like metal fatigue, maybe caused by no dampener.

A lot of us have this product or similar, so we all have a vested interest in Mike's response. I need my car to get to work, I know how much better it performs with the CR Lite Crank Pulley, but if it's going to shatter and smash into pieces in my engine bay doing damage, maybe I should go back to stock pulley.

I am aware that the failed pulley shown is the water pump pulley. I have not heard of a failed NST crank pulley.

The dampener/no dampener subject has been discussed and rediscussed ad-nauseaum on this very thread.

Additionally, the dampener/no dampener subject only applies to crank pulleys. The broken pulley in question is not a crank pulley, hence there's no point in bringing it up. The stock WP pulley does not have a dampener.

Exactly. No need to worry over nothing. Every product out there is prone to damage due to various factors -- some could be attributed to the manufacturer, others to the consumers and the way they (mis)use them.

Bernie,

I'll choose what, when, why and how I worry over things, I always have and will. Why are you making a mountain out of a mole hill? This is for Mike to answer, isn't it?

I know that, buddy. Which is why there's no need to bring up the dampener subject, is there?

That's fine and dandy. I'm just trying to avoid you a headache over imaginary problems. Worry away if you must.

As you can see, it is not me who is making said mountain (or interested in doing so). I am, however, trying to help protect a brand that I happen to be a supporter of.

Having one (allegedly) faulty pulley (out of hundreds if not thousands of pulleys made by NST) potentially damage the reputation of a company that is backed by the tuning/performance scene in general but also these forums in particular doesn't seem like fair treatment to me, especially since we don't have enough facts about this particular case to reach any kind of conclusion either way.

Also, having someone post a potentially damaging post without consulting with the fabricator first doesn't seem fair to me either. But I guess that's just me.

If u can still see my past posts, i did post on this thread before asking about this pulley. I have post some doubts on the wear and even post a pic on it long ago.I have great confidence in the product. But it fail me after 50000km++ so its the end of NST road for me. This is a fact.

shinlee · 06-23-2010, 04:52 PM

I think he's being perfectly fair about his statements over the pulley breaking on him. If I bought something somewhere, and it broke on me, I'd be damned sure to tell EVERYONE that I knew who might buy something there as well. That being said, I still fully endorse NST pulleys, as I've had mine for almost 2 years now, and I still love them. Just nobody can make something 100% perfect, there will be some problems somewhere, sometime.

*Astroman* · 06-23-2010, 05:40 PM

60+ thousand miles on my full set and no problems. Perhaps the bolts were improperly torqued? Not bad seeing 1 problem out of thousands of users.

suiller · 06-29-2010, 10:06 AM

and for my "poor" 1NR-FE also known as 1.33 (101hp)... which pulley should I look for ??

evo165 · 06-29-2010, 10:11 AM

About NST (NonStopTuning) Pulleys, does anybody know if they work in a yaris sedan 1.5 a/t? I also ordered but not intalled OBX headers, K&N Typhon intake, Magnaflow muffler and the sprintbooster (electronic throtle accelerator).

I'll apreciate all your comments.

Thanks
