Ur pulleys work on VE's .The crank works no problem.I have been running one for 2 years now.Im not saying go put it on because i here people say its not good.But i dont listen to what people say anyway

Ok people say dont put it on because ve's have 4 counter weights instead of 8 on regular sr20de 91-99.8 counterweight are more ballanced crank so therefore its ok to put the ur pulley on that motor.They say ur crank pulley shortens the life of the motor because it does not have the ballancer in the ur crank pulley.Its your choice.

Ok, well wouldn't we be able to run the pulley with the balencer?
what if... Can you use the DE crank on the VE? That's a bit extreme, but why can't the harmonic balencer be used with the UR pulley? Or maybe you can just get the stock one machined to be lighter/ smaller?

I have an underdrive pulley on my VE. I got the black ASP pulley $120. Nissan went to a 4 couter weight crank instead of 8 to save weight and allow the VE to rev up faster. The VE crank pulley is also lighter than the DE pulley. The 16VE flywheel is also lighter than the DE flywheel. I dont think vibrations are a problem.
what's the point? you dont gain much power from the 1lb savings or whatever when you put a lightened pulley on there. usually 1-2whp. the gains for most UD pullies is in underdriving the water pump to reduce cavitation, but you could just get an N1 pulley and be done. the VE water pump pulley is the same size as the UR pulley, and the difference in weight is measured in ounces, not lbs.
so, by bolting on the UR pulley, you gain maybe 2whp on a good day, you dont underdrive the water pump any more than before (the inside part of the crank pulley is the same diameter as stock), you do underdrive your A/C and alternator (yay! less cooling and lower idle voltage) and you risk harmonic damage to the engine. not to mention you just spent $140-200 on pullies you cant even see.
that sounds worth it to me, just spend the money on a flywheel or outlaw spacers.
