which are you talking about...do you have a link??
its at www.2Kracing.com i couldnt get the link cus there server was slow.
Not being able to get to their crappy site, I can only comment on what I'm pretty sure they are. They are lighter, and probably slightly underdrive your accessory components, such as the alternator, water pump, power steering pump, etc. This "frees up" some power robbed by the accessories and the heavier stock pulleys. That being said, you won't gain but maybe 4-5 rwhp. Also, I don't know of any pulley sets made for the VG30E, especially for the one in the S12. The S12's crank pulley is unique to the S12. What you probably saw were pulleys made for the VG30DE(TT). Save your money and learn how to drive the car first. Driving skill is where quickness comes from, more so than extra horsepower. Just ask the Vipers, Ferrari's, and Vettes that I routinely waste up at Portland International Raceway.
Here is the link to the pulleys he is talking about I believe.

well if thats the one, then he couldn't use it anyways since that is for the Z32 which came with the VG30DE, not VG30E like we have in our cars
