Personally..i bought mine from NOPI's website. I dont know much about the other two sites. As for performance, I noticed a bit more performance on my N/A (even though the dyno says differently). One thing to be careful of though it if u out that pulley on with a major sound system runnin. You do this, u and I ll will have alot in common. The underdrive pulley plus my sound system is causing me to go through alternators like crazy. You'll notice a bigger power gain on a TT, than on a N/A. You ll also feel the vibration from the engine a bit more, since you are eliminating the balencer from the stock pulley. Other than the alternator, i really have to compaints about the pulley. I say go for it!
Another thing, you'll not find any major power upgrades cheap. All the little mods do add up. A few hp here and few there will eventually build up to a 500+ monster. There are alot of ifs when modifiyin a car. U just need to weigh your options and make the best decision. Like, can you afford a high performance alternator if yours ends up crappin out.

performance is the same, unless the pulley is just lightweight. but i havent seen any that are just lightweight for this car.
if you want the whole kit, ultimatez has the best price $370 for the kit and belts.
i never had any problems with the alternator on my last car tho

How about a 700+HP N/A Z32 monster? These guys also have a TT Zed32 that runs in the 7's. I know as I've personally seen the turbo car and run him.
As for the underdrive pulley, they all work great and do the same thing, reduce rotation weight and use less power to drive the accessory's.
I get mine off eBay for $50-60.

Z ringo you keep referencing Escorts drag cars on here or 3ZC but have never stated your affiliation with Escort! How do you know these guys? Mitch, owner from AMZ, works closely with escort and goes out there every month or so and has never heard of you! You buddies with one of the Escort guys or something?

As far as where to buy product, you CAN'T beat www.amzperformance.com prices and customer service! They make a great UD pulley which can had for a bit less than the unorthodox! Like Zringo said some people buy one from ebay for 50-60 bucks and it works out, but do you want to trust e-bay stuff with such an important part?? Its up to you...

Well if Mitch is the owner of AMZ I surely hope he works closely with AMZ, and guess what? I've never heard of Mitch, but AMZ, yes, and only good.
As for the product I buy on eBay, who's product is it? I buy Hurst, Zex, Wisco, GMS and other name brand parts on eBay, so what your saying is I shouldn't trust eBay stuff with such important parts? Your right, it is up to me.

Blah blah...and more blah...

Dude..you always seem to amaze me...I've done A LOT of researching on you and everywhere I go you have a different name, different occupation, and ALL you do is referrance yahoo, google, altavista, and MSN search. You yourself are not different then those search engines.

Now about this Escort drag car...I want to know WHERE and WHEN you raced the Drag Z32 from Escort. I want to know the time and what car you put up against Escorts. Another thing...why do you always referrance the NA Z32??? Its old, everyone knows about it, you make it sound like its the best thing in the world. Have you even seen the car? Have you raced that car too? I bet your answer is yes isn't it...

It just truly amazes me that you have absolutely NO factual proof of ANYTHING you say ANYWHERE on the net. No one can find jack **** on any truth to anything you've said....00Evan and I aren't the best of ppl I admit but I am well aware of his unwilling ways of finding out who you are....I just don't get where the hell you come from...its like your an open encyclopedia of lies.

All in all...if your going to post factual info about yourself and other things on the net do yourself a favor and back it up...there are WAY too many individuals here that will read your crap and go do what you do. There are many things you state that are not correct and some that are....but I still yet to see you show what propaganda you have to make everyone believe you. Facts are everything and the only thing I'm getting from you is "How Stuff Works".

Please stop this as it makes you look really unethical and somewhat idiotic.

Oh boy, now were bringing the heavy iron from the 300Club to attact me. If you've done alot of research on me and say I have or use a different name and list different occupation's, you my friend are the lier. As for using Yahoo an Altavista thats a lie also. MSN is my ISP and I use Google to keep form getting spam. Is that a crime? Or is the crime using a search engine?
I almost forgot, you go out to Calif and visit Escort every month cause your one of there distributors, and you want to know WHERE, WHEN, WHAT TIME, WHAT CAR and how about what I had for breakfast that day?
How about Palmdale, Calif., LA County Raceway, Dec. 1, 2001, Sorry can't give the exact time, but it was in the afternoon, second round, I red lighted but kept going and still got smoked bad. Blue Z32 and I had Bacon, Eggs, Toast and coffee for breakfast.
AND ANOTHER THING, I keep Telling the N/A boys about the Escort Z32 N/A cause I get sick and tired of the dip sticks that keep picking on the N/A guys. I want them to know that they can make there cars faster without doing a front clip or engine change. Old, maybe but alot of N/A owners never heard of it. I've only seen pictures of it, so it would be kinda hard to have ever have raced it.

The rest of your garble is somewhat confusing, some of the things I say are true and some not, and the olny thing you get from me is "How Stuff Works". Hmmm

The only person looking unethical and somewhat idiotic is you.

If your angry cause I said I got my underdrive pulley from eBay for 50-60 dollars, gee i'm sorry.
OK everyone go out and buy a AMX part this week and get Mitch off my back. Now you fell better?

I'll post some if you really wish.

No I think its pretty funny that you only post info from a search engine rather than info that you claim to know so much. MANY have asked you to post real time data and all you can do is post something off another website.

I almost forgot, you go out to Calif and visit Escort every month cause your one of there distributors
Has nothing to do with distributing...it has to do with me knowing about Escort, talking to the OWNER and knowing what they do. You really don't get it do you. Its not just business with me and them...its also a team.

you want to know WHERE, WHEN, WHAT TIME, WHAT CAR and how about what I had for breakfast that day?
How about Palmdale, Calif., LA County Raceway, Dec. 1, 2001, Sorry can't give the exact time, but it was in the afternoon, second round, I red lighted but kept going and still got smoked bad. Blue Z32 and I had Bacon, Eggs, Toast and coffee for breakfast.
Didn't ask what you ate....I asked simple yet honest questions to which you still can't answer in its entirety. WHAT CAR DID YOU DRIVE? Your answer "Blue 300zx" !?!?!?


AND ANOTHER THING, I keep Telling the N/A boys about the Escort Z32 N/A cause I get sick and tired of the dip sticks that keep picking on the N/A guys. I want them to know that they can make there cars faster without doing a front clip or engine change. Old, maybe but alot of N/A owners never heard of it. I've only seen pictures of it, so it would be kinda hard to have ever have raced it.
Considering that 1. That car only has 300rwhp all motor...and sprays a rediculous amount of N2O to get it into the 10s. Its nothing impressive. I could see if he was running 10s with all motor work but with N2O anythings possible. So to show that to the NA guys...sorry but that doesn't give them much hope. The amount money that went into that car is twice as much as it would for a monster build on a TT. NA guys have all the potential in the world but you make it sound like the VG30DE can be a complete monster. It won't be.

The rest of your garble is somewhat confusing, some of the things I say are true and some not, and the olny thing you get from me is "How Stuff Works". Hmmm
The only person looking unethical and somewhat idiotic is you.
Yes I"m sorry...that what you say to myself and a LOT of others, have a VERY hard time believing. Maybe its because I post real facts and live data when I post info..you just merely copy and paste.

If your angry cause I said I got my underdrive pulley from eBay for 50-60 dollars, gee i'm sorry.
OK everyone go out and buy a AMX part this week and get Mitch off my back. Now you fell better?
Why would I get mad at that....I'm one of the most laid back business owners around. You are more than welcome to shop Ebay...that doesn't upset me in the least....but what gets me is your inability to be true to yourself and to everyone else.

Why did you leave 3zc? How come everyone on that forum asked you the same questions I"m asking you here and you got up and left? How come you keep running to other forums? What do you have to hide.

All everyone is asking is for some real time data that you "say" you have or know. I don't care about what ppl know you and who's been with you racing...the only person that you said that knows you is Chip from GMS and he is no longer around (unfortunately).

I got my exhaust system from Antonio in Miami. Good people, and very good prices. Met him on eBay.

Isn't it wonderful they allow the likes of you and you buddies to post without control.
Tell us all Mr. Luke Gates, what bull have I posted? Give it your best shot and save these poor souls from being led astray by Zgringo. I'm sure they have a mind of there own and can pretty much figure out what is fact and what is BS. So tell me and the rest, what is BS?

Hey....... I was at LACR on that date too. I was smokin' a number of kids who had faster equipment than me. I was faster outta the hole and first across the finish line,,,,,,,,, I was able to run non-stop for 20 minutes or so, till my arms pumped up so bad that I couldn't hang on any more. Ooooops, oh yeah, I was over on the moto-x tracks..... seriously now.
