Hey guys I currently have a OBD0 B16a with a CTR crank pulley. I want to switch it out to the OEM one that came on the car since im going boost and the stock one is harmonically (?) balanced and everything.

Are there any differences between the crank pulleys on OBD0, 1, or 2 cars? Can I use any pulley?

Is there a difference between b16, b17, b18, b20 pulleys?

Is it possible to get one with a spot for just the alternator? Or do they all come with a spot for belts for a/c, p/s ect..?

Also how necessary would replacing the oil pump be? It is about 2 years old but it was used with the "unbalanced" CTR pulley. I would like to replace the oil pump with a NEW one if needed but I dont know if i need to.

Also I am going to replace the timing belt/water pump, tensioner ect. Is it the same as all other b series like a b16a2 out of a 99 civic si (its easier to just tell people thats what it is then explaining to a parts guy its a m@d jDm y0 vTak.)

Thanks for all the help!

if the CTR pulley is an oem Honda one it is balanced.
To decide if you need to repalce the oil pump you need to pull it, open it and measure the internal clearances to make sure its within spec.
And no stock Honda crank pulley has anything done that is close to what a harmonic balancer does, they are just crank pulleys.

Ive read that the CTR one does not have some sort of rubber bushing that all the other ones have and that it is not good for boost because of this.

 

the rubber bushing is there to absorb the shock of the AC compressor engaging. it is not a harmonic balancer in any way, shape or form.
