AC Delete?

I'm interested in the A/C delete but it would have to be really cheap and have really good feature(s) to not just remove it and change the belt.

How did you do this ??? Is there a kit ??? I need a dead pulley to replace the compressor since I am running a SC'r with some other mods and the belts need to follow that path.
There is one made for the GTR motor...does anybody know if it will work?
Thanks,

All I did was removed two idle pulleys (#4 and 7 in the picture) and used a shorter belt. With you having a SC'r, not sure what you could do.

I'm at a weight cross road and Googling ac delete brought me here. I'm interested to see what's in your mind as well as a how to. I really don't wanna do it but my weight ratio blows!

Ok i measured the pulleys with a string and went to advanced auto. Closest thing they had was a 510v5 and a 505v6. Obviously we run a v7 so i had to lose a grove. The 505 is smaller of course and it seems pretty tight so i think im good to go? The only issue is the auto tensioner doesnt have the 2 points lining up saying its tight. Its pretty tight to me! But im guessing they dont line up anymore because ive lost 3 pulleys and re-routed everything. Who knows. If it snaps i hope it doesnt take anything with it.

I don't think it could do any real damage. On my old DE custom belt setup, it flew apart once and scared the crap out of me because it wacked a wire out of my oil pressure sensor plug. I was driving straight and had no other indication that I lost the belt... Just was ripping it and then the oil pressure light came on. Needless to say I was relieved when i finally figured out what happened.

Should the tensioner be normal? Its super tight all around except the highest part thats horazontal.

Pic?

Looks like it could be shorter and v7. Mines a 505 and yours could be a 507 or 500.

You can't see the pic? I don't have a pic on the car though, and I don't keep my car at my house.
