Quick update:
Got the crank pulley around Christmas time and put that on. Obligatory pic:

The car probably isn't really any faster. Rpms do rise/fall a little quicker when the car isn't under load, it idles smoother, and there's no longer a violent shudder when I quickly let off the gas while cruising, so there's that, at least.
Also had a little bit of a panic attack on Wednesday. I went to check my tire pressures and when I took the valve cap off from my front right, I started hearing a hissing. Immediately checked the pressure and put the cap back on. Hissing went away... Before trying to find where I put my extra TPMS sensor/valve assembly, I remembered I had a valve core tool. Got that out and lo and behold, it had come loose... In the few seconds I had the cap off, the pressure dropped 4 PSI. Glad that was a quick fix.
And lastly, around thanksgiving or so, my font left fog light would cut off every now and then. Had a bad connection so I had to re-solder part of it. Now my right fog light is out -__- Thinking it may be a similar issue, but it's been too cold recently to go take a gander. Not a pressing issue, so it can wait a little bit longer
