That happened to my friend with his H22 crx but with an Explicit Speed bar......it started digging into the bar pretty bad I think he said he put some washers on it and it kept it from hitting it. But I think on rough bumps it still hits sometimes. How low is your car BTW?

I had the same problem and if you dont have power steering and ac just get the N1 type r pulley and youll be good but be carefull you dont want that arm to break

I would also recommend the CTR crank pulley to help with this problem, because the outer portion of my friend's H series crank pulley was what was tearing into the bar. If he had a single belt crank pulley like the Type S it would have solved his problems but they are a pain to find.....

a friend of mine had one of his bars hitting the pulley. He was slammed though, dragging mudflaps

b20 in a ef wagon, solution was to switch to a b16 pulley for more clearance

this same thing happened to me...is it the stock pulley? i installed the N1 (deletes power steering and a/c) and problem solved. i have since raised my car also, it's basically lowered just 1 inch. i've had no problems since the new pulley...i believe there are also smaller aftermarket pulleys that keep the PS and AC, and they should work as well
