Looks pretty but how much does it cost and what is the weight of stock & aftermarket parts. Also were the hell is the black or red colour pulleys?

You sure they're not underdriven?

I don't know but still (I may be wrong, feel free to correct me) this type of mods will not increase HP, the only thing it will do is make the motor Rev. quicker.

Nope. Underdrive pulleys can create power, minimal, but definitely not the same thing as just a lightweight pulley. remember, you're changing how much the motor has to drive the alternator when you change the pulley size. Less work to turn the alternator, less parasitic drag on the motor.

according to product list they can potentially be ~$340, ~$87 or ~$240 based on those yen numbers alone. maybe someone can translate the page?

now do these other pulleys do damage to the engine like the crank pulley can? or are the only side effects just weight reduction?

except the engine one it's just lighter weight. I've been running a lightweight, underdrive pulley on my SX4 for 3 years now and the stock pulley is dampened like the BRZ, no side effects. others have been using them for over 5 years with no issues either. it helps relieve some vibration coming from the accessories, not the crank itself. at least it's what a couple engine builders told me, I could be wrong, my engine could blow up because of it tomorrow or never. but it works for me and i like the improvement it made.
