Yea mine is a silver on the left Does that make a difference on hp or no. Chaging the crank and belt. And if anyone knows what's the orginal size of the belt?

Crank pulley changes are usually done instead of a s/c pulley. The belt will have been changed to a shorter one when the s/c pulley was done.

Sounds like you have a slip from 2nd to 3rd. Have it scanned by a reputable shop and they can pull up the SLIP ratio between shifts. The PCM/TCU trys to get it into gear within a specified time but if the clutches are burned or worn this time will be exsessive because the TCU can not compensate for it. Hopefully that is not the case.

Are you looking at the supercharger bearing? If so, mine says made in japan as well. It may be a OEM SC pulley with a new bearing inside.

Nachi in Japan makes the stock bearing. Excellent quality, and much better than the no-name crap on the 'bay. If you were to replace it, you would want to go Nachi.
