went to godspeed in novi to get my crank pulley on and they couldnt get the stock one off w/ a impact gun, they said there gun wasnt strong enough and u need some other tool to get t off that they didnt have....

any one have this problem before??

 

You said they were the best around. :P


There is a special tool to hold the pulley and crank, while you get a 20 foot pry bar on that bitch. I'll see if I can find it,.. I almost bought one.

 

he was gona order the part from acura but said it wouldnt be worth it...

oh btw when i was there they just finished up installing a twin turbo greddy kit on a 350z, sooo hot

 

There are two different sizes. As much work as they do on motors, they should buck up and have the right tools. The bottom link is a kit with both sizes. I was going to get the top one.

thanks for the link

 

No problem,... print it, and take it over to the shop, and say WTF?

 

fucking amatures..did u still have to pay them for the attempt???

 

Darrin, let me ask my friend to see if he have the tool.

 

i had this problem and the fix is so easy...pull the fuse in the car for the fuel pump,and ingnition coil, just to be safe...put a breaker bar on it pin against the ground infront of the car and just turn the key acouple few times...the car turning over WILL loosen the bolt...i just did this last week...

 

Thats a good question...

 

thats a pretty slick idea

 

no i didnt pay, i'll call him w/ the news tommorw type r, thanks

 

believe me..i was hitting it with the gun for 15 minutes...then we broke out the tourch...still nothing...then i got on AV6 remembering what a guy abe did there (he's working on a GB for RVM pulleys)...anyway he did the breaker bar tech. and 2-3 turns of the key it was off...

 

 

good lookin out, i'll let ya know how it goes

 

Good idea but don't used your torque wrench as a breaker bar.

 

 

we used a pipe..this is that guy abe

 

i contacted the guy who installed it and type r's method might put too much stress and pressure on the starter so he didnt want to be liable in case something happened

i think imma go to a shop w/ a stronger impact gun, if that dont work i'll order the tool

 

Shit, you would think that a performance would have the tools necessary to complete the task. Good luck Darrin.

 

Too bad you're not a little closer. I've been looking for something to test my new 1000 ft lb IR Titaniuim impact wrench on.

 

:wackit:

 

A 3/4 gun can be used or you can heat up the nut with a torch for maybe 15 seconds and then hit it with an impact gun, that should do it. Don't get it too hot as the seals nearby could be damaged.

 

imma find another shop

 

Find another shop. When we did mine the guy that was helping me had a weaker impact wrench at home and we couldn't get it off. He drove to work and got a much better one and it took about 15 seconds working on the bolt but it came off. If you have a good gun, it will come off without a torch or breaker.

 

i cant find n e other place, this sucks

 

i had Acura install mine. is your dealer anti-mod?

 

dude just do what i told you'...itll work in 2 minutes...pull the fuse to the ignition...turn it over a couple good times and you'll be home free

 

1. Payn Tech in Troy (248)-649-3966

2. Specmo, on Woodward in Royal Oak (248)-691-8842

 

yeah, contact Payn Technologies or http://www.payntechnologies.com

 

Its time to drive out to NJ Darrin. :nj:

 

I wish I lived closer to a whole bunch of u guys....I can install just about anything and would save u guys a shit-load of cash. Darrin...just find a Comptech approved Acura dealer...or even a regular dealer. All they need is the crank holder.

 

Ei-Accord on the V6P.net board installed mine over the weekend using TypeR's method. His install took less than an hour.

 

thanks for the links brad,

my dealer is semi mod friends but i rathet them not do the install

 

my installed said that would put to much pressure on the starter and he doent want to be liable

 

paa should pay me a visit

 

you do it your self or tell him you'll sign off...it's no biggie

 

i'll think about it

 

Damn man, still fightin with this. I figured you gotten it on already. Your goin through some shit tryin to get this done.

 

not really i only tried once, i have been busy w/ school and work so i havent had time to find other places to install
