oh and please no comments on harmonic dampeners. our cars are balanced internally not externally. the crank pulley is does not balance the motor. the stock one prevents vibration. which i hear is very minimal when swapped out. i searched and seen the the NST and the UR ones and want to know whos got them and others out there and there gains and disavantages. Also. driveability and highway driving. I dont know know if the rpms are greater at speed being the motor is spinning faster...so comment away please...

I had UR Pulleys for sometime now. Still having fun with it, no problems here. The RPM picks up so much faster.

Well guys, heres the question I have now on pulleys.

UR has the same part # for both the TSX and the RSX-S, so my question is to anyone who may know, would any make of pulleys for the RSX-S work on our car

hmm... interesting.
I would say yes, IF they are exactly the same size as stock pulleys. If they are diff sizes, I wouldn't risk it. Why? Did you find any good deals on other brands for RSX?

I havent really looked, my big problem with NST is that their is no Power Steering Pulley, being an AutoXer thats one of the big advantages to me, however spending another 100$ for the UR ones isnt high on my list, I also dont like the fact that the UR pulleys are chrome, id prefer a colored set, That aside it would also be nice to find some other options, ya know?

yes any rsx type-s pulley kit would fit the tsx as its the same size. The accord 4cylinder also uses the same pulleys.

Thanks Ben, but unfortunately I don't have much experience with pulleys for the TSX. It's been said on the board, and it's actually obvious, the less weight and less friction on the pulleys, the better performance. Jeff has had UR pulleys on his car for about a year now and he says they gave him extra power and they work great.
I actually like Brent's idea. If we can find someting cheap and good that's sold for RSX, I'd try it.
