Hello guys,
Time to put in the car in the garage for the winter soon, and i have a lot of ideas, where i will be spending my time for the next couple of months!

Yes, i have serached in the forum about this subject, but i didn't get much out of it though.

However, there is a lot of options to chose by here. I have seen that you can buy those cheap kit with pulleys from china for about 50usd, and i thought that even if it may be some bad quality, it wont hurt very much, if the crank pulley would fail, but then i readed that the oil pump is going by the crank pulley as well, so that might not be a good idea? There may also be some problem if the pulleys are not balanced, right? Maybe the best would be to buy proper quality from the ft86 shop, or should i just skip the whole idea and not change it at all? Just want to hear some input from other perspective here.

(as usually, i'm from Sweden. My English is not very well, hope you get the most text though)

Cheers!
