@Rpatton226 That may not solve your problem. You have to check to see what all is worn.

so the entire crank was replaced? or no, mine has a similar issue, the crank pulley spins freely, it never wobbled this bad or made this noise though
@Rpatton226 No. I replaced the keyway, timing belt pulley, crank pulley, and all bolts involved. Make sure you use aggressive threadlocker. I put the car in fifth gear and then used a 4' bar to torque the crap out of the pulley bolt.
was the keyway worn at all?
@Rpatton226 Yes it was and it was replaced.
