well the crank pulley doesn't have any timing marks, so you tell me

Well that's kinda crappy! Wonder why they don't put timing marks on?

Because they are lazy. I would use any of the pulleys but the only thing I dont like is they dont have timing marks.

^x2, some people have marked the OBX pully with the OEM one.

nothing wrong with obx pulleys just transfer the marks from the oem...and hate to do this but...There's numerous threads on this.

I will have to search to see,but it seems to me I saw a thread somewhere about the OBX also just being lighter than stock,but NOT a different size to underdrive the waterpump,etc.like the UR pullies are.
Can anyone confirm this?

had them on my 200sx and they worked fine, thinking about buying another set when i go turbo.

crank pulley has no timing marks. set the car to desired time with stock pulley......pull the stock pulley off and put the OBX on......use a hacksaw blade to mark the timing on the OBX pulley.

Yes, but sometimes stock pulleys shift a bit and thats why they are swapped for this type of pulleys. I had to replace the OEM one on my 200sx because of that same problem, pulley marks shifted. So now I don't have any marking to make sure where it's at, well maybe put it at TDC and mark it
