I'm one of the lucky owners of the Pineapple pulley setup. All I can say is that the quality is top notch. I had no idea that they stopped making them. I'll drop Rob an e-mail if you guys would like.

CJ <--good friend of Robs :)

Good quality product, but mine at least does not quite follow the original belt path.

Clearance required some grinding on the bottom of the t-stat housing.

I had one of the first ones, maybe that why I didn't have to shave any off of the housing. The belt is close, but by no means close enough to touch.

Jared you still go to the meetings? CJ

I don't know of this is correct but I did see the idler pulley kit for sale...if these are not it....my bad:hahaha:

BTW...can the pineappleracing idler pulley kit rev up to 9k rpm without slippage constantly?

Yes, they are for sale again. Rob found a guy who could do the machining for cheaper. He was going to wait to put the word out until the wooden boxes that they where to come in where finished. But if you must have them, they are available. CJ

Yup yup, emailed him yesterday and he told me that they are definitely backup for sale!

tHEY HAVE THEM COME AND GET IT!!!!!!

Wooden boxes? Wow do they gift wrap them too... I must say though it looks like a clean install. It definitly looks like it'll work with my single turbo.

single-T guys this is a must!!!!!!!!

how much are they selling for?

179 plus shipping

$179 is the intro price. After that they go up to $249.

For an additional price, I'm sure Chris at Pineapple would gift wrap them too. :) CJ

not really Rob @ Pineapple said there is even a multi unit discount available if you ask.

Hmmm... do I smell a group buy.

:) Rob @ pineapple stated that the second gens are much better then their original version. ie: better material and cnc machining with some eye appeal. I cant wait till they can ship these out.

From Rob to me earlier this week.

CJ, it took almost 1 1/2 to sell 20 kits, so I did not make more. Enough guys had been asking about them so I decided to make more.
Sorry to say, but nicer than the kit you bought. They are on the website. I found a machinist who was better and less expensive. Comes
with stainless fasteners. I am having a nice wooden box made for them. Retail:$249, Intro price $179. I was waiting for a full announcement
for when I had the wooden boxes, but if someone needs one now, I will sell kits.


From the man himself. :)

+1^^^

What pp13bnos said is indeed true, I just talked to him on the phone and it's pretty sad that he just broke even last year selling 20 kits. It's good that he's selling it now though and if I were you guys I'd get them because again what he said intro price is $179.00 and won't be that price for long. Well I purchased one for myself today :) ** Also Rob did say that he doesn't have the stainless steel fasteners yet but he'll ship em right when he gets them for people who do buy it now.

i didn't look online, but does it come with the belt?

yes, rob stated that it will work with most aftermaket pulleys. great price i think IMO

The FD idler kit does indeed come with a belt. Its perfect with stock pulleys but if you have aftermarket pulleys then I'd suggest you give rob a call and tell him exactly what you have.

just received my shipment enjoy the picture!!!! the choice of material and attention to detail is mind blowing. It does come with a belt!!!!

Hey can you post pics when you install this...I'm curious as to where the bracket bolts up exactly.

OKAY:)

ok, so will this work with my greddy pulley kit or not?

Gene order one soon!!!! yes it will.

cool mikey, looks like ill have to order one.

:) Kool Gene

Anodizing can easily be done at home with basic knowledge of electrochemistry. I want one of those kits!

So how do you order if you are running the whole underdrive pulley set..Crank, Aleternator and Waterpump, no P/S and no A/C..

Kaifd3s--- this bolts where you used to have the Airpump located.

LOL...I know that part, what I mean is how do I let him know the size of the belt that I need since I am running all Underdrive pulleys...

lol I THOUGHT SO MAN!!! Ask for Rob and mention the type of pulley set you are running. they might have the size of the belt in stock. Other then that standard set will come with the size to fit OEM pulleys.

Just ordered mine, cant wait...

Yeah, he said it comes with standad belt so I will have to try to source out a belt, not a big deal...

18 bucks!!!!!! you'll love the tinny rotary marks on the pulley. I know i duuuuuuuuuuu

HAHAHA!!! I was noticing those on there and they are great!!! Looks like I am going to have to pick this up too....

Noah

Funny cuz I was one of the first to order the new batches and I just received mine but not to worry I LUUFFFF it!!!!

Pure Porno Man!!!!!!!!!!

HAHA, hellz yea man! The nano second I touched it I dropped to the floor and had multiple orgasms! :lol:

got mine today..looks great...thanks Rob!!!!!

ANYONE!!! have install or updates???????????? feed back

Well i just installed mine with the Greddy pullies i already have and after doing some measuring, i found the a 44" belt worked great. The one that comes with it is a 42" btw.

I put in a Gatorback, for instance, and the part number is 4050440. About 20 bucks. You can also use the 4050435 but is a VERY tight fit to get on but isn't too tight once on.

GY gatorback FTW nice
