Somehow I broke the key in my crank pulley (scared it was a rod knock thank god no) and i need to get another one.... I was wondering what options there is besides the Lightweight OBX Aluminum Race Pulley and if any different size belts would be necessary. THANKS!
GE Crank Pulley options...
- Thread starter d_block.5
- Start date
Only options are new OEM or the ATI.
Make sure the snout of the crank isn't trashed first though.

Bored there 1J? That was fast.
Like 1J said, double and triple check the crank snout. Woodruff keys don't usually break on their own. Usually a loose pulley does it, but an unbalanced crankshaft can do it, too.

yeah the snout is fine, everything is still good, the pulley was really loose, when i was listening for the noise, i noticed it wobbling, i think whoever changed the timing belt on this car before i got it must have not tightened it to spec..
another question, would this key come with the pulley, or do i have to go through toyota and get one?

The key is pretty inexpensive, but probably wouldn't come with the pulley. Any auto parts store should have the key, though.
yeah hopefully wont be too hard to find, would this lightweight pulley make any noticeable difference in my performance?
There is a lot of info on the web about putting a light weight pulley and our motors. The bottom line is do NOT do it.

As IJ said and a key can be purchased at the dealer for less than 10 bucks :icon_bigg
ATI makes a pulley and is available for almost same price as a new one from Toyota.
