NST CR-Lite (OEM SIZE) Crank Pulley Group Buy
 
http://www.nonstoptuning.com/images/...ST13710KRG.jpg


Hey gang, a few of you have heard of NST by now, so here goes...

-PLEASE READ THIS POST VERY CAREFULLY BEFORE ADDING YOUR NAME-

This Group Buy will offer the 370Z community a special run of our CR-Lite series. Our CR-Lite Crank Pulleys are lightweight versions of OEM crank pulleys and are roughly 70% lighter than the OEM pulleys they replace. The CR-Lite is the pulley of choice for our customers who are looking to supercharge their cars.

We are also offering a GB discount on our CR-Lite & Alternator KIT. This kit includes both the CR-Lite Crank Pulley AND an Alternator Pulley. Both pulleys are oughly 70% lighter than OEM and lead to better throttle response and quicker acceleration.


Generally, NST Pulleys are offered in two colors: Red and Graphite Gray.
To make this GB more interesting, we will offer a choice of colors for this batch of pulleys: Red, Graphite Gray, Blue, Silver, Black, Gold, Purple.
Please note carefully: regular production colors after this GB are over will remain Red and Graphite Gray, so if you want a special color... now is the time!


This will be a special run of NST pulleys and will require roughly 15 people within the next 15 days.

Each CR-Lite Pulley will cost $125 plus shipping (roughly $10 in the US.)

Each CR-Lite & ALT KIT (two piece kit) will cost $169 plus shipping (roughly $10.)

For comparisons, a typical kit of this quality and features is usually $225+ when purchased at regular pricing.


Payments can be made using the services of PayPal, Debit, or Credit cards; we will have detailed instructions for you about this as we come closer to the close of this GB (JAN 3, 2010.)

We will begin the production process on this GB once the closing date has arrived and all payments have processed. We will have some sweet pulleys to ship out to you guys ROUGHLY FIVE WEEKS after payments have processed. The long production cycle is part of the reason each member is being offered such a large discount on this GB. Building a pulley properly and testing along the build process requires several weeks, but we prefer to do it properly rather than quickly. I hope you all share these same values, and will be patient as we move along. Please do not sign up if you can not wait patiently.

You can check the following links, from other forums, to get an idea of how NST group buys usually proceed from day one to the day of shipment...

For what its worth..

I just got my car back yesterday after the NST pulley install. I cant believe how heavy the stock pulley was!

Not just that and its possible its just my imagination but I'm sure I can tell the difference. Seems to Rev up faster and the decel is less when you drop off the gas.

Great product guys, thank you for that! (picked up mine through Scott and Fontana Nissan and the nice guys at AE installed them for me)

Will this have any effects (good or bad) if i ended up going Supercharged? I know on my cobalt there were 2 types of drive pulley's. Overdrive and Underdrive...one was for supercharged cars.

TipsZ 12-18-2009 07:52 AM

To confirm this kit still uses the standard / stock belt correct? Also, can you post pictures of the other colors?

vipor 12-18-2009 08:19 AM

i need to somehow send this thread to my GF heh. :xmas1: wish I had the monies, those red pulleys would look purdy on my Nismo.

these are stock size, not overdrive or underdrive, just lighter. same belt will be used.

TipsZ 12-19-2009 06:25 PM

Is the vendor going to post the other colors per chance?

Rickey89 12-20-2009 03:27 AM

noob question, i have never had a turbo car but i will turbo my z, will the pulley affect the greddy kit? its the same size as the stocker so im thinking no?

but i have very very limited experience in turbos so help would be appreciated

This type of crank pulley, our CR-Lite Crank Pulley, is specifically designed for those owners who are looking to supercharge their cars. Boost will not be affected in any way when this type of crank pulley is used.

Correct, this kit would be compatible with the OEM belt.

Boost (psi numbers) will NOT be affected when this type of pulley kit is used. Neither in a turbo or supercharged application.

No, our every day MSRP is a sale price!

Our Underdrive Kit is the only kit on the market that offers two pulleys at a price that is lower than many other companies' price for just a crank pulley! In addition, we are the only company that offers two hard anodized color options for you to choose from.

We can not lower our MSRP any further at this time.

moto,
How long was the install and what were you charged? Just want an idea so I don't get it up the :icon23:
Thanks for the info.

pty370z 01-09-2010 10:14 AM

Come on people!

Great price and great product here. Nobody else?

P.S. Is there a way to get these if the group buy doesn't run..?? I assume pricing would be affected. Thanks!

aliveZ 01-09-2010 05:24 PM

pty370z,
I called NST to see if I could get a better price despite a lack of interest in the group buy. They weren't willing to go below the price on their website, which I believe was 199.00 for both pulleys plus shipping.

shabarivas 01-09-2010 06:14 PM

so they wont do the custom colors either?

NonStopTuning 01-09-2010 11:54 PM

Unfortunately, the community has shown very little interest in this GB, and therefore we will not be able to run a production batch of this CR-Lite Crank Pulley.

Anyone who is interested in the highest quality Underdrive Crank Kit on the market can place their order with us on our website. We offer the most complete kit, at the LOWEST every day price, on our website. We are unable to provide any discounts at this time, seeing as how we offer the most complete kit at the lowest current market price.

Anyone who is looking for a special order kit, special colors, or special specs, can always contact us by phone during business hours mon-fri and we would be more than happy, willing, and able to process your order. Please note: special order items require several weeks to build and ship, and cost a bit more than mass produced products.

Thanks again, good luck and have fun with all your projects everyone.

simota1 02-01-2010 07:32 AM

sorry but superr... noob question...

I theory, when you supercharge a car, you are able to keep the stock crank/alternator pulleys.. That's why you shouldn't get underdrive pulleys if you plan to supercharge but OEM size pulleys are OK..

The supercharger will include its own pulley(s) for its working.. I think that's the pulley that regulates how much psi you can send to the engine...

simota1 02-01-2010 10:42 PM

in that case... COUNT ME IN in the group buy :D

As listed on page ONE of this thread, unfortunately the closing date for this GB passed long ago. We needed about 15 members to sign up by JAN 3, 2010. Unfortunately, the community did not seem interested at the time.

This GB unfortunately closed long ago.

Our customers who are interested in the best underdrive kit currently available, can place their orders with us on our website at their convenience, 24hours a day... www.NonStopTuning.com

Thanks again everyone!

simota1 02-03-2010 02:03 AM

:( ok thanks for letting us know nst....
