Sup bro? Been a minute. I got my diff gears (3.69) from my 6mt if you want them. 50K miles. Gear Teeth still in mint condition. Thinking about doing the pulleys also. That's because I'll be swapping out the oem radiator for the csf radiator. Pm me if u want the Gears.

So, I had to buy that Rabbit Fur, but will be cutting it, in order to cover the 2 microphones. This should help a lot. We'll see...
I use this POV camera.

Bought it used from a mother who got it for an ungrateful son so I got a great deal btw.

I have a triangle mount that has a little depression with a small hole inside each depression at the points of the triangle. It attaches to the car with these badass rare earth magnets so it's super easy. I bought it a while back to film my skiing adventures thru the trees and on the snow "half pipe", I just recently started using it on my car too. It's awesome, but the wind noise was killing me. So thank you Alfredo! I'll be buying my rabbit fur as soon as I finish this post. Unless you wanna send me a little bit of your leftover lol? My mic is only an inch by an inch and it's located about halfway down the camera cable.

Sorry for being AWOL. Getting some personal stuff done before doing any other mods.

Indeed. Two months is uncharacteristic for you.

What's next on your mod list, Alfredo?

Don't want to spend money on another mod before being settled wherever I will be studying medicine.

Alfredo,

How are the NST pulleys holding up now that you've had them installed for several months? Any drivetrain vibrations? Also how many miles have you logged onto them since you've had them?

Now about the NST Pulleys:

The install seemed to be a bit of PITA. The problem seemed to be removing the crank bolt.

As for the butt dyno, the throttle is definitely more responsive. And about the gains, we will see about that on the dyno (soon).

Would I recommend this mod?

I still haven't tested it enough (dyno, track, etc.), but for now I would say that this mod is nice for those of you looking to squeeze every last bit of N/A power. If you are planning on FI or trading in the car soon, then I would not recommend.

Everything working perfectly. Only about 1k miles though.

Thanks! But the G stays home while I'm away. At least for the first 2 years

Logged back in to report problems with the NST pulleys. Avoid this mod...it screwed up my A/C unit. I had to uninstall and go back to OEM.

Nice to see you check in Alfredo, wondered where you'd been. Anything else to report??
Sorry to hear of your AC issues

That's about it. I'm studying in Mexico, so I only use the car for around a total of 6 weeks during the year during summer and winter.

Hopefully in a couple of more years, I'll move to the states and take the G with me

Hey there Alfredo, How's it going man.. hope you're doing well.

About this mod, I've been running this kit along with the belt NST recommends with the kit and it's running flawlessly and hoping for it to be this way. Were there any symptoms or signs before the alternator got screwed up? Noise or vibration?
Were you running their recommended belt "K070786 Gates Racing Belt" ?

Thanks
