if you are, what alternator belt are you using. I have tried gsr and b16a and they are both too long for my motor. Anyone know of anything?

 

Ask Mike k, I remember he posted a Honda belt that works with it.

 

yep, the factory R belt will not work.

 

Do you lose the AC with this pulley?

 

yup.. loose AC and PS (to make it lighter), thats why its called the N-1 race pulley

Harmonic balancer is not there like the unorthodox. Can anybody verify this?

That is correct.

anyone know?

 

Anyone know what??

If asking if it has a harmonic dampener read the post that you posted after.

 

I don't know what model it's from but I used a 29in belt for my N1 pulley, a dealership should be able to find the part by size.

 

Would you possibly run into problems with harmonic balancing w/ the fact that there's no rubber?

 

yeah..will take out your oil pump gear pretty quick...unless you have a high quality replacement like the toda...

and will shorten the life of your engine.....

but so does revvin it to 9000 rpm...hehehe

 

i think mike k. says you have to use a power steering belt of the TL

 

Sorry for the newbie question but what will a CTR N-1 Race pulley do for my car?

 

it's a single pulley, which you use if you don't have power steering or air conditioning.
"This very rare piece is the crank pulley that Honda uses on the N1 Civic Type-R's. This crank pulley is pre-balanced from the factory and weighs a mere 1.8 pounds. Perfect if you do not have any A/C or powersteering and are looking for the ultimate crank pulley. Also, unlike many aftermarket crank pulleys, this pulley features all timing marks...just like your factory pulley! Genuine Honda, so you know this fits perfectly and is made to last. Notice the notches in the center of the pulley...no other pulley on the market can duplicate these notches. You only find them on stock Honda crank pulleys. The purpose of these notches is so the pulley does not bind and get stuck to the crank-end as friction builds. Many aftermarket pulleys are difficult to remove after they've been on for some time...not with this pulley. Constructed out of chromoly steel, this is one awesome part. Will fit any B-series engine"

 

I dont see how, the oil pump is driven off the crank snout and not off the pulley.

 

I saw on here that someone said a 2.5tl power steering belt was the right size, but when I ordered that it was 2 inches short. the belt size for the 2.5tl(on belt) was 700, the belt that was the right size says 735 on the belt.
