ZPI or NST crank pully? - Toyota Yaris Forums

ChinoCharles · 02-22-2007, 02:52 PM

I was wondering when this question would pop up.

ZPI, NST, Unorthodox... all three companies make pulley kits. I'm not necessarily saying Unorthadox makes a Yaris pulley yet, but in general when pulleys are discussed these are the three companies that come up.

The difference is that NST's focus is on pulleys. They don't dabble in much else because they don't feel they have to. It goes along with the old saying, "stick to what you know." NST knows pulleys. This is why when Toyota was ready to donate a race car, they signed NST on to make the pulleys for their Scion. TOYOTA did.

One of the coolest things about NST is the company's connection with their consumers. If you have AIM, you can add NST to your list (NSTonAIM) and ask the president of the company anything about their products or cars in general. Trust me... I've spent countless hours over the past month or two talking to Mike about his products, his company, and the tuner scene in general, and I've learned a ton. He has a lot of great stories, pictures, links, and other things to share with anyone interested in NST products.

I am not going to say anything negative about any vendor on this site. All I will say is I encourage anyone to go to scionlife's forums and search for ZPI and NST and read what others have said about each. I did.

Also, when NST comes on to support any community, they grow along with it. The Scion tC community was a good supporter of NST, and when TRD decided to release a supercharger kit for the tC guess who eagerly started making kits to raise PSI numbers on their TRD s/c kits? I don't zealously support any vendor that comes on this site unless there is some kind of reciprocal advantage in doing so, and I'm telling you flat out... I want NST around down the road as a supporter of this community in case their services can benefit us again.

Our support of their CR-Lite pulleys has already paid off... if you go to the link below, you'll see that they're already planning to make two more lightened pulleys for the Yaris. The date is TBA, but from what I hear you can expect them sometime in the summer.
