Underdrive Pulley Install question

Post by inzomniac »

I've read the install instructions on the legacy central mods page, but I'm curious about one aspect of it. Is it nessesarry to remove the fan and the overflow bottle if I've taken out the A/C compressor in my car? I can't see how it would make any sort of difference if I left them in.

I'm just trying to be lazy and save time when I finally get up off my lazy a$$ and change the pulley.

Thanks in advance

Removing the fan will give you extra space to work.....same with the overflow tank.

If you want to monkey around them, it shouldn't be a big deal, but It'll be a lot easier to work on things if you have the most space......just my two cents.

Hay Gary, I did this on a 2.5RS with everything on the car. I haven't take out any think since I think its more easy and work faster.
All you have to do is, ready a long braker bar to turn the bolt. Find a person who sits inside the car to hold the brake, and hand brake also put the shifter to 5th gear.

I don't it within an hour for a friend of mine and he said it did made some different after he test drive.

BTW, what kind of UDP you are going to put it in?

I bought an Unorthadox Racing pulley off Luigi's dead engine (right after christmas, you can see how long i've been waiting to do this.. but it's sooo cold up here) $150 for pulley and belts, I couldn't refuse :D
