Is it worth upgrading to an aftermarket lightweight adjustable pulley? Have heard it can do damage if not harmonically balanced or something...
Also looking at upgrading headers but have heard many statements that our jdm headers are pretty good already and won't gain much...
No you wont gain much at all by changing headers without a tune, once you have a tune with I/H/E you would probably gain 10kw.
Dont know about the pulley though with the balancing stuff but lighter should = better as less to spin from the engine.
AKA: The Spaniard! +1 Rep me if you find my posts useful.
I just heard that a lighter pulley can cause all sorts of long term problems like electrical problems and premature internal wear from vibrations cause the pulley is lighter...
Also, are those 'shorty' headers (headers that just replaces the stock one meeting the engine using the original downpipe) any good?
vtak + jrsc = bwwaaaahinneeeee
IF GUNS don't kill people, peoplekill people does that mean that toasters don't toast toast, toast toast toast?
Anyone know if the OEM door actuator has a Master and Slave unit? Or do they both act as Master units. My drivers side one has decided to play up and I am having a hard time trying to source the correct part number for the RHD model EP3 type r.
I can only find pics and part numbers for the US LHD model, EP3, FIT and CRV's. The left hand side actuator on those have pins on two plugs, where as the right hand side one only has pins for one plug???

Just go aftermarket, even if you change it to another Oem it'll stuff up. It's a common fault for civics built between 2000-2002 where the central locking just gives in.

True you have a good point. An aftermarket kit seems a lot cheaper option too.
(My initial thought of not going aftermarket was because I'd have to remove both door trims and fiddle around with the wiring, positioning of the actuators etc... I'm too lazy to do that!)
But I guess if the OEM ones are prone to failing more frequently, I might as well just go after market.
