There's a logic error here... just because it's constructed the same as a balancer on a Ford V-8, does not mean that it's necessary to prevent actual engine problems on a Nissan V-6 (as opposed to NVH).

Is there any way we can magically summon a nissan engine designer into this thread and settle this?
