ugh *vomits in mouth*

there are always people saying you don't need this and you don't need that..but EVERYTHING (and you'll hear this too often from me) that Mitsu did cost a SHITload of money to develop and fit to car...so you can be god damn sure they made sure it would have a benefit being there.

my take on it, just go a stock TT pulley no matter what you're doing to your engine and call it a day (that's what's going on my 4.2 TT)

Yeah I agree but the only thing that worries me about the oem is it coming apart and in the worst case knocking out the timing

How about that ross balancer, it is reasonably priced and it looks like a fine piece ?

let me know how much :D

From ROSS

"We can make a batch of dampeners to suit the 6G72.

We would need a sample.



Your price for 1 6G72 metal jacket dampener would be $614.25aud +
tooling & freight
x 2 dampener $583.53aud per dampener + tooling & freight
x 3 dampener $552.82aud per dampener + tooling & freight
x 4 dampener $522.22aud per dampener + tooling & freight
x 5 dampener $491.40aud per dampener + tooling & freight"


so it would be 484.5 USD if 5 or more people would buy but remember shipping from Australia might be pretty pricey ... not a bad price at all remember this damper costs up to 600 USD for most applications !

I actually prefer this damper over ATI mainly because it doesnt need maintenance or rebuilding - ever and a lifetime warranty ...

Dammit! I would in a couple months> too much to catch up on for the build...

That's spendy.

lol at this thread. tires don't go bad? really? is that why you can't trade a set of NEW (unworn) tires in when you buy a new set--if the unused set has a date stamp of > 3 years ago? :awesome:

i'm not surprised that GB didn't see the light of day. neither did my one for a hood. this community can thank itself for the lack of quality offerings.
