Whats your experience with fitting them?
Thx.

easy to fit. use a open ended spanner to suit the clutch nut, then give it a quick whack anti clockwise with a dead blow hammer two or three times and they come loose. bit of a squeeze and be careful of the radiator core that you dont scrape the fan against it. at the time I also fitted a 7 bladed fan as well

I'm looking at ordering a belt drive component kit and its only $31 AUD for shipping. SBR wanted to charge me $20 shipping from Wangara to Baldivis (80km difference) for a small package.

true. I need a new idler pulley and buying a Gates pulley and with shipping works out about AUD$10 or more cheaper to my door than getting off my backside and going to Supercrap, try to find a parking spot, (Frankston store is bloody hopeless) then only to find they dont have it in stock and has to be ordered in
pays to always check the item cost and shipping then do a conversion and see if it is worthwhile. usually it is, then sometimes it isn't
