NonStopTuning crank and alternator pulley are on the car! The OEM belt is still on the car, although the tensioner pulley is maxed out. It works fine, but not 100% ideal in my opinion so I will be ordering a slightly smaller Gates belt to replace it with. I am actually quite surprised at how much better the throttle response is. I am also quite surprised at how heavy the stock pulleys are in comparison. I am glad I took this particular item to a professional shop though as they had to remove the radiator fans and alternator which is beyond my comfort level.
SPC Performance toe bolts are finally in as well. Nothing really cool to say about these other than I now have more rear toe adjustment.
My production version Berk Technology cat-back exhaust system also showed up today so that and my rotors will go on tomorrow, just in time for the Vivid Racing JDM/Euro Charity Meet! SOOOOOO excited to finally get the x-pipe version back in the car. So much sexier sounding than the H-pipe prototype I have been running for the past few months.
