i have the 1jz twin turbo engine.. my harmonic balancer blew apart on me today... i am looking at drift motion and found a few different options on there.. i have the factory one.. http://store.driftmotion.com/static/i-1jz2jzstockcrankpulley.php
then there is the underdrive one..http://store.driftmotion.com/static/i-1jz2jzlightweightunderdrivecrankpulleyv206061aluminum.php

is it better to go with the under drive one then the factory one to avoid it blowing apart again? apparently its a problem with these...

i also need the center support bearing for my drive shaft.. is it better to just get the steel one???http://store.driftmotion.com/static/i-3insteel1pcdriveshaft.php
i know the aluminum is the better choice but money is short right now...
the factory toyota one here is going to run me over 500
( I LIVE IN CANADA)

I would appreciate any help as soon as possible as i need to get the car up and running again soon.. thanks again..

if you have any other ideas let me know..

so i was reading up on the underdrive and it sounds like if your engine is not internally balanced it can cause issues.. so is our engine internally balanced? or is this underdrive a bad idea? last thing i need to do is do some damage to the car further
