Lightweight crank pulley is pretty good for the price.

Flossy shift knob. Great first mod for anyone with a stick shift.

Good thread. Does the lightweight crank pulley make a big enough difference to be worth it? I've never swapped one before or driven a car that had it done.

best advice i can give you? drive the car to its limits, visit the track often and at the same time save money you will know what to buy next when you reached a certain point and you will appreciate the money spent when you change things since you will notice the difference! Just my 2 cents.. Enjoy!
