Jeff, don't install it untl you get the spacer in the mail. THey should be sent out early next week. That spacer is to eliminate the chance of the pulley touching the crank sensor.

hey man, nice to see you made it over here. As you probably already know the 7thgen marketplace is an amazing place to find parts for good prices....but if you're looking for anything specific you should talk to Braden(Big) chances are he's either had it, got it, or getting it.

Thanks Bruno, I wasn't planning on installing it until I got the spacer. I still don't think I trust it, I can't understand what is there to stop it from slipping? If it is really that snug a fit it must suck to put on and take off later. Who is going to install it for you ?

Probably gonna get the dealer to install Jeff, they've done plenty of crank pulley installs for 7thgens. This one shouldn't be that difficult to do.

I know the ones that he is talking about, they have the chrome at the front of the housing instead of inside it...kinda hard to describe, but IMHO they are ugly. Lonodn Honda has a chrome set that you can look at if you want to see them.

Let me know if you're interested Rich

Alright thanks man, i'm gunna think about it. I know what your saying about the chrome/black being different on them...i think its cuase its right up against the plastic housing rather than set back inside em. I'm considering just doing a real good body coloured painting of my stocks

hey guys... my sister is in the market for a car and she's looking at getting something like a used '00 - '01.
I'm trying to convince her to get a Civic (haha) but what other cars are realiable and decent? She wants a 4 door and I want it to be an Import.

civics prolly the best bet quality wise, but more expensive since they've got a high re-sale value. Which will hurt her now but help her when she wants to part ways with it. Only other 4 door import i can think of would be the protege(sp?). Definetely convice her to go with the civic though

Hey Rich.. Was that you the other day driving behind me? It's the same Civic I see just outside of Strathroy like all the time.. Looked like black TYC projectors.. Not sure what else. I thought maybe it was you..?
