Guys,

New to the forums and need some information or help.

Have a bit of work done to my car (did it my self with my brother) & stumbled across the following part which i might be considering.

CUSTOM PULLEY $250

The new RB SERIES water pump pulley has been in the making for many many years. The pulley has been tested on cars like the RAJAB Racing Dragcar, Ben Viceconte's 160mph bullet, Albert Rajab's & Choppers 9s street rides + many more. Designed for high performance engines, it slows the water flow down through the engine by slowing down the RPM speed of the water pump which enables the radiator to cool more efficiently.

PULLEY SITE

What do you guys think?

any information or feedback would be great..

thanks. Simon :P

KILLR33,

This is to suit the VL.

My experience with the VL's is they require the water to be slowed in order for the car to not get too warm.

A good example of this is an aftermarket cheapo thermostat. They open really really wide. The genuine item opens only slightly. Aftermarket thermostat, car runs slightly cooler MOST of the time. Driving up a long hill at 60-80km/h or has the engine temp slowly but surely creep up over half when its warm ish weather.

Drop the genuine item in and the temp guage stops fluctuating.

It pretty much hardly moves and doesn't over heat up long hills.

The Skylines don't have this problem. :D

Buy a GTR N1 pump if you want something similiar, the pully is $250 wasted.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
