Never buy an aftermarket lightened pulley.
Sure its light but it fucken wiggles like a ****. So I open my engine and notice nice little golden snow flakes.
Heres the bastard that did this to me. Your going on ebay you little -----
Now does it matter if there are light scratches on the crank? The bearings pictured are the crank ones. The rod bearings are in a lot better shape but you could see that they were getting there. Luckily i didnt spin anything so i just gotta swap the crank hopefully. I guess you can now say that breaking a balljoint saved my engines expensive parts
.
Also is it normal that when I hand crank the thing i can only get 90 psi in the cylinders?

Wow, I've heard of this happening so many times. 
I'll never use anything except a Honda crank pulley.

if you crank it by hand and got 90 for the compression, remember that when you crank it with the starter your cranking it 7-10 times so that must be it. i did a compression test on my b16 and 90 was what i saw on the first crank, then more psi til 220 by the 7th crank.

Re:This is what happens when u use...
i kept cranking and i was hearing like a pshhhh when it would compress.
its either that my rings havent seated or the ring gaps are 2 large for na. maybe cuz its also very cold
man am i hoping for a miracle
and about the crank pulley, i remember when i would rev the car i could see that thing wobble like a mother ******...
man now im thinking of going ls/vtec
