I know from previous experiance with a 99 RS, that if you do not have the crankshaft matched to pulley, your engine will fail extremely prematurely. Blew two motors due to this mistake. Perrin makes the pulley, and the crankshaft specially balanced for the setup you are looking for.

I have one AND a lightweight flywheel...double trouble. Or so I've heard. But so far so good. Redlined it a bunch at the track too. Not sure what to tell you beyond hitting up Nabisco a bunch. I see them a lot there.

I installed the Perrin LCP on my ex-wife's 2.5LGT over 2 years ago with no problems and the car has not been treated nicely either.

DO NOT mix the LCP with a LWFW!!! You will absolutely hate the results from it. You will run into idling problems and such from lightening both ends of the crank attachments. Pick either the FW or the CP but not both. I've seen it first hand it's not something you want to experience.

i dont think that is true.

the part number is the same for a 93-01 impreza and a 02-09 na 2.5 is the same and the same as the part number for a WRX.

they only make one pulley.

Well, that's all fine and dandy, but the boy is looking to make a purchase, not hear all the pros and cons.

Can anybody help him out?

The point of the pros & cons is that this will be a wasted purchase if he's already running the light weight flywheel.

I've put more then 70,000 miles on my car with this mod (LW flywheel + LW pulley) with the smoothest idle. It has 240,000 miles now and idles better then my buddys wrx with 6000 miles on it. I also have group N mounts, and still idles amazingly well. First hand .. It works juuust fine.

So anyone have one for me to purchase before I go to nabisco??? :)
