Smile After almost 2 months...new bolt ons...RSX Type S...

Well I finally got her running. The last time I took my car for a spin was back in Dallas at the end of May.

I've fixed my problems (I hope) and installed a set of ASP underdrive pulleys. Which by the way fit well and I have no problems with lights dimming what so ever.

So I go out for my first real cruise before bed and I start off spinning in first, chirping in second and chirping into third! That is the first time I've done that so I think the pulleys made a big difference, definately worth the $70 some odd dollars I paid for them.

Wasn't too long before I ran into a young man in an Acura RSX Type S. I figured that this guy might be good composition as they seem to be rated pretty well in most car mags. From a 30 mph roll I smashed his ego pretty good. I had him atleast by 4 cars to 80 mph, maybe more (hard to tell from rearview mirror). We played again, but this time from 20 mph, but by 45-50 mph he was so far back I think he gave up.

On the way back I caught a couple runs with an MX-3 Precidia (sp?). No contest, much as I thought before I hit the throttle. But I was still impressed how quick I could put cars between us.

All in all I'm really happy with the ASP pulleys. And except for the dam Alternator pulley they were a breeze to install. I just have to get to the track and see what kind of times I can turn!

Do you have a 5spd or auto? I thought from previous posts you have an auto but maybe i'm wrong? Either way good kills. I've got the asp pulleys on my stang too(except for the alternator) and like them a lot. Could feel a little difference.

I have a 5 speed Manual.

I really liked the ASP Pulleys. Good build quality.
