hey schools can i run the Gilmer Drive Pulley Kit that tweakit.com sells without my stock water pump? The reason i ask is because now that im running a electric water pump, there is going to be a lot of left over slack on the belt? Do you think they sell a smaller belt for this application? Let me know

Jen it not the money issue no logistic issue. To my surprise from the mouth of Chris and i quote. I have only worked with pfc once on a GTR and never tuned a FD with one!!!!!

Yo! Yo! Yo!

Just stopping by to say hi!

Update:
FD- looking to maybe rebuild, but still sorting out fuel issues (if that actually exists).
New car: Project STi is probably a go for next week. I'm giving it a buffer to screw the dealer down to what I want to pay.

Happy Hump Day!

Could you just fab a bracket with a mini-pulley? Like a 60/90mm one. I'm sure you already thought about that though.
