Is it possible ? I am test fitting mine now, and it seems that I will have to dremel out the lower timing belt cover or just ditch the belt cover completely


Also, is there an inner lower timing belt cover ? I only have 3 pieces, is this right ?

hmm if it wont fit just dremel it i guess.. coz leaving it off completely is a disaster waiting to happen

fits fine with no mod to lower timing belt cover. you will need a new belt. shorter one

Got it figured out, ive got an ITR oil pump on my c1 block, I have to use the ITR lower timing belt cover.

itr oil pump = gsr oil pump.

ITR part # : 15100-P72-A01
GSR part# : 15100-PR3-024

So, They may have the same guts, but the outter housing is different because the lower timing belt cover for a gsr will not fit a itr pump.

ITR lower timing belt cover : 11810-P72-A00
GSR lower timing belt cover: 11810-PR3-010

sorry dude, but you're mistaken.
itr oil pump - 15100-P72-A01
gsr oil pump - 15100-P72-A01

itr lower cover - 11810-P72-A00
gsr lower cover - 11810-P72-A00

not trying to argue, just saying if you're hoping this will solve your problem, you're barking up the wrong tree. please trust me, the itr and gsr timing belt covers are identical. in fact, they are even the same on b16s. only LS covers differ from the vtec ones.


edit: did some more looking. the part number you listed is for 90-95 integras. but as you have a 99 gsr, it is still the same part as an itr.

How come my lower timing belt cover does not fit then ? It leaves a large 1" gap between the oil pump and the timing belt cover.

i dunno, but both acuraparts247.com and acuraautomotiveparts.org show that the gsr and itr have the same part.

Figured it out, in 98 the ITR/GSR oil pump changed, there is a spot for a crank sensor on it.

I have a 94 timing belt cover, but a 98+ oil pump. and thats why it wont fit correctly.
