a buddy of mine is selling it to me for 250usd. the only thing is, it doesnt come with the shortened belt. is that absolutely mandatory or can i get away with out it? i know, its a dumb question haha

 

you need that or one of the aftermarket tensioners, you don't want the belt slipping do you?

 

nope, definitely dont want that.

how much can i get one for and from where?

 

Wrong.

I ran a 2.8 for a couple days on my stock belt.. haha..

The stage 2 pulley had no problems for a few months i ran it before i got the belt. I Installed it one rib over and it broke so i just used my stock belt.

 

just get the stage 2 belt. you can usually find one used on here for $35 shipped, thats what i sold my spare one for. or you could buy one new for like $55.

 

Its just fine to go and run if you cant get a belt right this very moment.

 

yeah it will be "fine" but definitely not as a permanent solution

 

Correct.

 

now i have a nood question how do u reomve the pulley from the sc there like no bolts on the outside of my 07 redline.

 

Well..

There is something called a pulley puller... Some have trouble with it, some dont. There are certain ones you can rent that work better than others (the ones at autozone and stuff).

The easiest way is to get to a auto machine shop and have the pulley pressed off, and have the hub pressed back on. This cost me 20 bucks... but was worth it, since i tried for about 3 hours with a pulley puller.

 

i thought it just depended on which stage 2... zzp s2 doesnt require stage 2 belt however recommended. any pulley smaller than 3.1 i would recommend a smaller belt though. i just bought mine regardless because i knew i would need it. funny thing is month after i did my pulley swap etc... new belt w.e.... i had to get a new belt tensioner assembly... i didnt bother zzp bout it i just went to the dealer and told them it went bad for some reason... the tech looks at it later on says thats not the stock pulley or belt is it? i'm like no its not is that bad? he said i'll let that kinda stuff slide... oh btw i replaced the belt tensioner assembly all under warranty... i gave him 40 bucks for tip lmao
