I was so frustrated, and actually just gave up. I was going to get the BRZ towed to the dealership tomorrow and bite the bullet. I figured they may take pity on me, so I went about putting both the intake and pulley back to stock.

I took the stock pulley, put the new o-ring in place, attached it to the Crankshaft pulley spacer, lined it up as close as I possibly could to where I knew the key was (I used a mirror and light to better see inside) and gave her hell.

Just as with the Perrin Pulley, it went in, but not all the way. So, i decided i'd bolt it down anyways, got it to 94ft/lbs, and started to put the stock intake back on.

After that, i gave it one more cautious start, and to my *fucking* surprise, it ran WITH NO WOBBLE, absolutely perfect.

So, I cursed with joy and sorrow for time spent, and decided to take one more shot at the Perrin pulley, now that I knew the spacer was seated correctly.

Here is the part, that should be included in the DIY to keep that spacer seated:

When removing the stock pulley, wedge a socket extension (or two) into the bolt hole to keep pressure on the spacer in place. It would be much easier with a friend, but it's possible to keep pressure on the socket extension and pull off the stock pulley at the same time. I can take a shot of this just to make it easy to see tomorrow.

Here are two photos of how I used the socket to keep the spacer in - The bolt is obviously in place, I just wanted to show how I used the socket extension.



Here is my spacer completely in place.





And a reminder of when it is NOT in place:




Also, here is a quick clip of my Perrin Pulley after this project:



Hope this info helps someone.

Hey I'm confused a bit about the below statement with the bolt hole. I'm not sure i'm seeing what you're illustrating, even in the picture.

I see that you're putting pressure onto the crank pulley, but I see nothing there about a bolt hole -- if you can explain a bit further or point it out to me, that would be great. It'll be my 1st time doing something like this, since this car has it's more easily accessible.

The photo doesn't depict the ACTUAL process of using the socket extension to hold the spacer in.

I just wanted to show the angle and how you could use it to apply pressure.

The first step is to REMOVE the bolt (about 100lb/ft of torque required). Once the bolt is out, then you use the socket extension to hold the spacer in while you remove the pulley.

Great, thank you for clearing that up for me. It was a bit confusing because I was expecting another socket or another place to hold the pulley.

Pulley Wobble? or just the new belt?

Help! I think I did everything correctly, but there does seem to be something amiss, or at least a little different than the video posted by Gopherboy6956. The automatic tensioner is moving quite a bit. Could it be the new belt I installed at the same time as the pulley? The movement of the tensioner does not seem to be fast enough to indicate a pulley wobble, it seems slower as if there is a bit of a bend in part of the new belt. I used a new bolt form the dealer and torqued it correctly.

Video Link:


These photos are higher resolution than the ones posted by Gopherboy6956, but I think the spacer is as flush as in his photos. Help and comments would be appreciated.

Your pulley seems to be rotating correctly, which is good. The tensioner seems a little too bouncy, but I don't know enough to say whether you should worry about it or not.

Did you try it with your stock belt and see if there is any difference?

I did NOT change belts when I put on my pulley, mostly because my stock belt only had about 100 miles on it..

So, i'd check that and see if there's a difference.

As far as the spacer, it looks all the way in to me. BUT - when i look at your video, there still seems to be a tiny amount of wobble, which looks like mine did when the Oring wasn't fully in the spacer channel.

Did you get a new Oring? They are NOT reusable.

I did not get a new Oring, but I didn't see the need. The spacer did not seem to move at all, so none of this was removed or reinstalled.

Edit: I think you are on to something with the O-ring. I removed the crank pulley (again). This time I lightly oiled the O-ring. It seems that it is too small for the space that it is supposed to be in - it seems that it does not fit snugly like a kid trying to wear his dad's shoes. It is probably stretched, and I think I should replace it, but everywhere is closed now. Also, I lightly oiled the back face of the crank pulley that would be in contact with the O-ring. I think that the amplitude of the vibrations on the tensioner is a bit less. See this new video:



Did you get you Oring from the dealer? If not, what size did you buy and where did you get it?

I ordered a new one from the Dealership. Just told them the part # and called it good. The two o-rings were VERY different sizes when i compared them, so they must expand once in place for the first time. I don't have the part # here are work, but I can grab it when I am home tonight.

Dunno if anyone mentioned this: If you have a small mirror (like your gf's mascara or make up unit with mirror on it), it helps out a lot too.
You'll be able to look inside and match everything up
Took me 5 mins to install back in.

The first time I took mine off (Before i had the new o-ring) it took me seconds to get back in as well. the 2nd time, however... not so much.

But yes, the mirror helps a ton.

If you follow the DIY - you should remember that the tensioner pulley is a LH thread, if you loosened it to remove the belt you are going to need to tighten it again to spec (but bear in mind, LH Thread).
