XB crank pulley same?

[mattymo]

Does anyone know if the xB 1nz-fe has the same crank pulley as the yaris? I want to buy an underdrive. Tried ordering one from NST and they burned me. I'll never try to use them again.

My rant: they took my money, and wouldn't refund when they emailed that it was on backorder. ...never responded to my emails or voicemails. I had to get my credit card company to get my $ refunded. ... three months and too many hours pissed away.

You could buy a light-weight crank pulley from microimage (http://shop.microimageonline.com/MI-Lightweight-Crank-Pulley-MI-LWCP-Yaris.htm). Relatively inexpensive, and I can guarantee you that they won't jerk you around.

I looked at that, but for some reason they only sell lightweight pulley now; it's not underdrive. Reasonable suggestion though. Thanx.

xB is not the same, as the 2004-2006 1NZ-FE xBs had hydraulic power steering and because of that had a dual belt crank pulley.

it'll fit though if thats your only real concern.

Why are you focused on underdrive?

That's a lot of the benefit of the crank pulley mod.

Update: success! Installed ralco xa pulley. Works great. Has extra inner section for hydr ps...which we don't have. Just left this empty. No probs so far. Better acceleration on butt dyno. Quieter idle. Only small issue is that I lost 0.5 volts at idle...no biggie.
