for the car no
for the engine on the other hand. A resounding YES!
Damped like the ATI crank pulley or leave the OEM one in place.

You must have a dampened harmonic balancer/ crankshaft pulley. without it you will do fast damage to your crank and bearings.
Cressida 7M's I've seen still have the normal damper but do have a huge weight pressed into the middle of it.
my 2 cents.....ur money's better spent somewhere else. the cost of an underdrive pulley can't replace the insurance of an OEM pulley with a good harmonic balancer.
^^^ That is unless your 20 year old original damper has all the internal rubber dry rotted 
The ATI damper is a good 5 lbs lighter than OEM and it's cheaper than buying the stocker at the dealer.

No kidding, they want more ?
Never thought of calling the dealer when mine went bad,
I just picked up the phone, and called Summit.
They had the ATI in stock for $395.
Yeah, Unorthodox is an expensive, well made piece of jewelry,
that can damage your engine.
(I don't even think they offer them any more)
And OBX is worse yet,
it's cheap, has no dampening,
and most likely like the rest of their product line,
out of tollerance, and poorly made.

^ ditto I have one I did 4000 Km's from new sitting on the shelf I replaced with an ATI when I did the lightweight crank thing in my engine.
AJ: By that stage I was making enough HP that a stock one wasn't looking too safe even with it being brand new.
I figured it kills 2 birds with one stone and would work well with the Light crank and offset the Torque Converter's additional weight.
