Putting on pulleys? Would it mess with the harmonic balancer our longevity of the engine? FRS/BRZ

Can you be a little clearer about what you are asking? What pulleys?

Well it couldn’t have been more clear I think! So for Example: buying and installing pulleys and installing them on the FRS/BRZ our 86 would it mess with the Harmonic balancer if you don’t know what the balancer is look it up Basically that’s all I’m asking

The only things that may effect the harmonic balancer would be internal changes such as lightening the crank or replacing pistons and/or conrods as it may change the the harmonics of of the assembly enough to take it out of the effective range of the damper.

If you were referring to aftermarket idlers, tensioners, alternator and waterpump pulleys then no its unlikely. If you were looking at an aftermarket harmonic balancer or light weight crank pulley that would effect things.

If you were to add a pully on to the front of your existing harmonic balancer to run a supercharger etc it probably would effect things a fair bit.

It could be far more clear. What "pulleys" are you talking about? As Turd pointed out there are different scenarios.
Don't be a d1ck to people trying to clarify to help you.

He must have got out the wrong side of his bed, stepped in some Covid-19 virus mess and then cut himself shaving leading to some pretty unsavoury harmonics in the bathroom. Then decided to post his first post on our very "friendly" forum..

Considering that it is probably one of the top 10 debated subjects here a 10 minute search would show that there is no real answer anyway. It is just two sides with each having total conviction that the other is wrong and "evidence" to prove it.

Hooked On Harmonics really worked for me!

"Fr" Friend request?

With that sort of response?

I'd guess "Fr" stands for "Freaking rude" - :iono:

Well in general any pulley the most common one that is put on is the crank pulley (right) it was a simple question the only **** head seems to be u trying to stir up the pot JD001 no need to be a clown to try and gather in audience an it’s my 2nd post lol an the knowledge was appreciated just not yours

So I guess you’re an audience of the clown to! Lol exactly there is no answer so I made a topic about it just for clarity now I got a clown (jd001 and sideliner (Tcoat) giving opinions I was just searching for facts!

There are no “facts” on this subject. There are a bunch of really different opinions. You could read one of the many existing threads to discover this.
You still have not answered the basic questions to even collect opinions.

Ahhhh..... literacy. May it rest in peace.

Isn’t the basic question about the pulleys I should of stated the crank pulley to avoid people’s confusion

But then the question remains what about installing all the pulleys

I was just concerned about the harmonic balancer the dude who committed first kinda summed it up for me

Thanks for that input bro

To some up the crap load of threads I already put a link to......

Lol thanks dude!

We are not confused. You asked an unanswerable question since there was not enough detail. Still isn't. You have narrowed it down to the crank pulley but exactly which? It makes a huge difference on what one you are asking about. Each variation has a different set of rabid opinions associated with it.
It is like says "are bigger tires better?" without saying what size or use you plan. There simply is no answer.

if issue is install pulley would of balanced harmonic then u can maybe get kind that plays better wit what your running

Don't listen to them.

Just remove it altogether.
That's what I did. Freed up 25whp and 20lbft tq.

Tut, tut.. oh, well, I hope you get your answer. I will go somewhere else for amusement..

Mr.Jerm, is English your first language?

Don't know much about crank pulleys, but I watched this video on lightweight crank pulleys a while back. Might be complete BS but the guy talking sounds smart so I believe him.

What’s it to ya?

I would think it would have something to do with critical speed as well, but I only know enough to make myself sound smart except to the people who are smart.

Oh, just curious, trying to give you the benefit of the doubt - :iono:

Me....I'm doubting the benefit.....

Says the other clown who can’t put a sentence together LMAO! [emoji1787] u were better off staying quiet [emoji2958] here’s a helpful tip for ya! Next time read out loud next time! that way u can make sum since of what your trying to say [emoji1787]

Please allow me to further elucidate. The technique I used in my quoted response is commonly known as "satire." Rather than use correct, idiomatic English prose, I attempted to utilize the stilted, misspelled, grammatically incorrect methodology inherent in your posts in order to point out the difficulties presented in parsing your intended meanings. In doing so, a modicum of humor was, hopefully, also present.

Yes, harmony is very important for longevity. But I don't know much about pulleys.

I am amazed this thread is still going. At least Mr Jerm has now met the forum's stalwarts.
