If so what brands are decent? I see the local Autozone & Oreilly has some for like $153 & up. I know OEM Honda parts are always the best, but wow they are expensive!

Just changed my one out with an aftermarket one off eBay made in Taiwan for $132.50 AUD seems to have good seals NTN from what I can see as it came without the pulley (no big deal)I'm going to order the "Gates" Power Steering Pump kit and fix my original pump as it was only the seals
that had failed. I also flushed the power steering fluid as well as changed out the power steering reservior tank. I'm not a fan of the remanufactured ones only becuase they paint them black which makes it hard to detect any leaks.
Try the likes of RocKAuto they have a good selection and more likey to stand behind the product.

My power steering pump started leaking at 135k on my 06 TSX. Acura wanted $1000 to replace with OEM or $500-$600 with aftermarket. The Acura service manager didn't sound too confident with aftermarket replacements compared to OEM. I went with an used TSX power steering pump on eBay for $101 with shipping included with around 75k on it. I also purchased new seals and power steering fluid on eBay. Local shop replaced in about an hour and it is working perfectly after +6 months.
