Description
GFB lightweight BRZ/86/FR-S water pump pulley direct replacement (part # 2221) is made from aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminium and is significantly lighter (and better looking!) than the factory pulley.
This is the same pulley as found in our complete 3-piece pulley kit for the BRZ/86 (part # 2016).
Like all GFB lightweight pulleys, these begin life as a single 6061-T6 aluminium alloy billet, which is then precision CNC machined to exacting tolerances. We then anodize them black for a stealthy appearance and superior wear resistance.
This kit is supplied with 3 pulleys, not just for looks – the combined saving of 2.2 kg is significantly more than what is achieved by replacing just the crank pulley alone.
The weight doesn’t tell the whole story either – even though the saving is a significant 77%, the actual rotating inertia reduction (inertia is what counts) is 83%.
Like all GFB lightweight pulley kits, you can feel the improvements:
- Sharper throttle response
- Engine feels more willing to rev
- Stronger “urge”
