I have yet to see a bad sprocket on a 9000 even though people here on the board talks about it and have seen it.
On the other hand, I'm up to 12 NG900 non turbo engines between 94-97 with bad balance shaft sprockets by now, including one in the shop that I'm working on right now.
So honestly I have no clue how big this problem is and if you should even bother to replace the sprockets in your car.
What I have done on the last three engines is to remove the sprockets and chain all together.
I can't feel a difference in vibration after the balance system is removed.
