How much did you fork out for all that? Its that time for my Civic to get the timing belt and water pump changed. I am at 68,000 miles.

That's interesting that you said 90k. Honda told me that it should be at 60k. I also have heard that from other mechanics that I know and also some friends. Do you remember what it was exactly for the timing belt and water pump alone? Just curious, hey by the way what part of Utah do you ride in?

I live in Layton, but grew up in Centerville. How about you, you never mentioned where you roll at? I talked with a good friend of mine and his dad races out a RMR and also all over the western US, so he and I will most likely replace the timing belt, but as for the water pump I don't know what I will do about that? Definatly let me know about a meet, I would be happy to come out for it.
