Message	nothing against Kyle or Greg, but most any mechanical engineer will tell you different. While in most cases it probably won't damage the engine, it is certainly better to have a damper than not. Nissan didn't put it on there for nothing. FWIW...Mike Smith recommends the Fisher pulley because it is a true torsional balancer. He is the tech that built Mike Kojioma's car that you've seen in SCC. Also, the engine builder I used for my engine does not recommend the solid hub pullies either. FWIW.
