What's everyone's recommendations for. 300rwk+ rb25det. Keep looking at the Ross ones but then it looks like you need the power steering pulley as well. Also the ATI ones, other than them the doesn't seem to be much out there. Any recommendations?

The Ross Metal Jackets have a power steering belt groove? I run one on my RB25, all good so far

If the stock ones weren't so expensive Id say go for one of them, but for a little bit more you can go a Ross balancer

$250? Last time I looked they were more than $400

Yeh bro $220, asking as it handles the power, is there any other major advantages?

just did a search, seems it's like a new-ish problem and the band aid solution is to run another idler off the power steering bracket (seems dodge to me)...

back in the days I never heard any issues with Ross balancers, probably they're surfacing now because people are making more & more power.

When 250kW was heaps, it's crap all now lol...

I myself am chasing 350kW now... :)

I havent had mine dynoed yet, but my tuner thinks over 300rwkw, less than 350. It is a fair range but guessing is hard. I was aiming around 320 and I think it will get that.

The balancer looks fine, the belt is straight and spins nicely, everything looks good? I bought mine at the start of last year

Last time I read the thread, some issues were popping up while ross still owned it, now he has sold the company the issues have been/are being sorted.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
