   I have spoke to John at GMC about getting a discount on theese, he said he did try a group buy on SSC with not much interest but said if i can get between 5-10 buyers then he will knock £10 each!
   
   For thoose who dont know what theese are, they are the pulley attached to the end of the crank that drive the alternator. Basically a standard pulley weighs about 1322grams, GMC pulleys are made of alloy so they weigh in at 355grams! Almost a kilo loss, so now you might think whats the point in this, well basically losing weight of the crank has the same effect as losing weight off the flywheel! Making the engine easier to rev and releasing a small amount of power that otherwise would be used to drive the pulley!
   
   
   
   This is what they look like!
   
   Another thing to think about is a standard pulley from Citroen costs around £120!
   
   Final Price-£75.90 inc Postage.
   
   If youre interested please put you name down!

   OK i know total sweet FA about this so no laughing..... If they're made from a lighter material are they likely to be less durable?

   Its made of Billet Alloy so is very strong and durable, only reason Citroen didnt use alloy is down to cost! Now although this is cheaper than the citroen part i bet it wouldnt conform to their profit margins so they made it out of something cheaper!

    There is a complete kit on ebay (made by Colin Satchell) for £100 delivered - that contains an alloy crank pulley, alloy alternator pulley and belt. Worth a look.

    Seen thoose kits but never spoke to anyone with one!
    
    Heard nothing but good things about the GMC pulley!
    
    I have a QEP L&B flywheel and these pulleys lose more weight off the crank than the flywheel does!

    Do you know the weight of the crank pulley in this kit, as this is what makes the GMC one so good as its so light?

    The pulley thats on the alternator?

    #25 2nd February 2009, 21:58

    Alternator needs to come out which is pretty easy. Ideally you need an impact gun to take off the pulley nut unless you hold it somehow but not that bad a job.

    LOL, you think they are made differently? Colins are made on a CNC machine and are no way any different to the GMC ones!

    Any there any adverse effects of doing this. I.e in the winter with the radio, and blowers on full blast?

    Ditto. I think they must be able to budge on price a bit, cant seeing them costing much to make. The GMC ones a crazy price for one pulley

    Yeah, pretty expensive for what they are. I'd say £70 is a bit more realistic.

    look mates i have one cuestion , the pulley doesnt have like a type of rubber? how do you get that rubber to the gmc pulley? or it comes with it already ? because once i broke up the cranck pulley and the mechanich said to me that it was because it broke the rubber which attach it to the cranck in itself.

    #55 25th May 2009, 12:21

    The rubber part is a harmonic damper
    this helps to reduce crank back lash
    
    alot of cars dont have the rubber at all
    many of the gti6 forum users run a pully without them and have done so for many miles with no significant side effects
    
    speak to lynx enginnering who do the 306 ones

    The large eBay one is lighter than the large GMC one and the small one im guessing is lighter than standard (GMC just the large pulley, eBay Large and small pulley plus belt)! The only difference with the ebay one is it slightly underdrives the alternator, not the best if you have big subs or lots of gadgets drawing power! But on a plus it does free up some power!

    Spoke to Colin on eBay about a group buy for his kit featured below! The kit comes with crank pulley (215g), alternator pulley (85g) and alternator belt!
    
    
    
    
    
    Original price was £100 inc P+P and Colin will knock 15% off if we get 5 people, he may knock off more depending on numbers though! So now £85 inc P+P!
    
    £85 Delivered!
    
    This kit is a few pounds more than the GMC pulley but its comes complete with a new alternator belt which is advised to be changed when changing the pulley anyway so which in effect be cheaper if you do buy a new belt! Also this kit has a lighter crank pulley than the GMC one and a lighter alternator pulley therefore aiding freeing up the revseven more and also this kit slightly underdrives the alternator which release more engine power!
    
    If anyone would like a kit please put there name down:-

    N123 i may be able to forward the parcel to you, if you cover postage?
    
    Hopefully this should go ahead quickly just emailed asking how colin would like us to pay?
    
    Think the best way is if we get his paypal details and everyone just send him £85 and states what its for and its the Sax-p group buy, he may be worried he wont actually get the numbers go through with it though so may want someone to collect them money then send him a bulk payement with all the addresses on!

     Just been and picked mine up from the Post Office. The quality of these pulleys is fantastic, and so so light

     Yeh, will give it a go.
     Want to see if i can do it without taking the alternator off, depends if i can get a spanner on it, bit tight to the chassis.
     
     If it's raining i'll have to see if i can get the front end in the garage

     Managed to get mine on today, Quite a bit of work.
     Had to drop the ecu side of the engine to get the old pulley off then the new one on.
     Alternator needed to be removed to get old pulley off then new on.
     
     Won't be using the Saxo till next weekend so can't comment atm.

     I've just looked under the car before i was going to change the crank pulley, alternator pulley and belt but i ran in to some problems. Here's a pic:
     
     My first gues is the belt collin provided is to short, can anyone confirm this or is it going to fit? Second how do i remove the tension from the belt so i can remove the crank pulley? If I'm wright the pulley is only secured by 3 bolts?
     sorry for the noob questions

     i'm fooked, i have an airco so there is an extra pulley next to the crank pulley and alternator pulley. The belt is never going to fit... also my crank pulley has a different diameter then the light weight crank pulley. Anyone knows if i still can use the light weight pulley or do i need an orther one?

     If you disconnect the aircon and the idle pulley at the top middle it should fit! The lightweight pulley is designed to be a differnet size to release more power!
     
     Forget about Non-uk saxo's having aircon!
     
     Let us know how it goes!

     I think it's to small a change to notice much but does feel like it revs a bit easier.

     After getting rid of the stupid tensioning roller, it now looks like this..
     
     
     
     
     
     I had to re-locate the altinator because i made a strenghtening bar there.
     
     
     
     It's now lower on the engine , mounted on my new home made support!
     
     
     
     I haven't done a test drive but i also think it revs quicker!

     The Saxo's without airconditioning have a 128 mm pulley, the ones with A/C have an 138 mm pulley.

     well I've fitted the crank pulley a few months back, butt i coudn't replace the alternator pullet at the time and forgot about it. Now i want to replace the alternator pulley with the lightweight one but how do you get the OEM pulley off???

     The thread has an allen key style fixing in the middle then you need a swan neck spanner to get the nut.
     
     When I did mine it was on so tight I had to take the alternator off then grip the old pully with some clamps and get a breaker bar on the nut.

     Arent these known to fail, so getting one of these would be a worth while investment.
