[allmotorwhore]

So I was wondering how you guys with ITB's get around the bracket located that holds on the alternator and the water pump etc? I was trying ot mock up the itb's and it does not fit? is there something I am missing because I know you guys use twm itbs like me. I dont want to do a hack job but If I gots to then well haha I gots to...........Thanks for the help you guys? :up:

 

[Klaiceps]

Check this out. I'm not too sure since you're using TWM's. This was made for Jenvey ITB's.

 

[fasterthenU]

got to hack it off and run a piece of shit alt. pully..

 

[Scuffers]

either that or use ITB's that fit without loosing the tensioner etc.

 

[nikos]

yeah, you just need to cut that bracket off and run the 3 pulley setup


AEM pulley pt# 23-7032 (alternator pulley only)

with k20a2 crank pulley you need a POLY COG 5070390 found at advanceautoparts or kragen

but you cut off the pulley bracket used for the tensioner

Calling NIKOS

hi Nikos

need a little extra help here - and i'm sure it will be useful to others out there

i spoke to Jorji at AEM today to try to find where i could get the 23-7032 part from - as the delaers i tried dd not recognise it.

he tells me they have never made that part! - its not a production item -
i told him somewone i know has one fitted and it looks fine - and he sent me back to check the part number with them/you

can you help / double check for me

many many thanks

Re: Calling NIKOS

AEM sells a pulley KIT for the rsx that has 2 pulleys. They also made a kit of the EP3 that has only the alternator pulley.

Do a search on google for 23-7032 and you will see it... Maybe they never actually made it? Who knows. For the k20a in the pic, we used the rsx pulley kit but that means that we are stuck with a second pulley that we cannot use.

The part number for the type s is Manuf. Part #: 23-7031 but it is like $160..

I really do not get it... how import shops online are claiming to be able to sell 23-7032 but AEM says they don;'t know what that's about?

Weird..

 

[garz]

ok nikos - thanks for the rapid post

at least i understand a bit better

i might send them your info and see what comes back

or - once i have a lathe set up - start making them - just a little larger to solve the belt wear issue

thanks garz

 

[chad_everson]

o you can be cheap like me and not use the aem pulley and just go buy a shorter belt. works fine for me


chad

 

[nikos]

what you mean? A short built?

 

[chad_everson]

hey i meant belt sorry

chad

 

[garz]

Hi Nikos

no reply from AEM as yet - no great suprise - eh

but would you do me a favour and check a couple of things for me

was that a JDM spec K20a with a denso alternator that the AEM rsx type s pulley fitted just fine

reason for asking is that AEM dont have any info on what pulley should fit a JDM motor - so thought worth checking before i orderone - mine has a denso alternator - what was on the one in the Pic?

thanks a lot

 

[11sec CR-X]

I already have the pulley. I bought it for an ep3. My buddy wanted one and eeveryone keeps telling him that its not available or in production. even called AEM and they said they didnt make an ep3 kit??? I bought one what tha??

 

[garz]

chad - can you post a photo of what you did?

i thought you need the larger alternator pulley to allow the belt to clear the waterpump pulley

be very interested if you have another way - as getting the correct pulley is turning out to be bit of PITA

cheers

garz

 

[chad_everson]

well i dont have a pic of it and cant take one because motor is apart because im running a k24 bottom end now so we are putting it together. i just ran the waterpump pulley in between the belt. like i had one side of the belt on top and the other side on bottom. if you make it tight enough then it works fine. You dont have to worry bout it.

chad

 

[garz]

nice idea Chad

many thanks for the info

i will take a look at it - sounds like a winner
