I hate major maintenance
 
I just did a major maintenance on my poor 94 accord, ~180K miles.

1/. Complete timming change - Had to replace the crank pulley as well, the old one cracked. I was about to get the complete Unorthodox SS package (crank, alternator, and PS) but it'd cost me $250. So I bought a used crank pulley at a junkyard for 80 bucks :(.
2/. Major tune up.
3/. Front brake disc & pads.

All together cost me like 600 bucks for these OEM Honda parts :mad:

I'm broke. Now it's the lightning issue as well. Anyone has a spare OEM projector that you don't use (that'd fit D2S bulbs) that want to sell, please let me know. I'm looking for one to do the retrofit on my accord :(

In terms of maintenance, spending a few hundred on a rare occasion is better than not spending any money and letting your car fall apart. If you take care of the Honda, then it will last forever. I have over 216k on mine, and it still runs strong.

Thanks man. I'd wait and order, but I need the car like within 24 hrs. Gotta go to work and all, that's why I had to use the used one.

I don't think you can buy as a package, more likely, you have to buy them separately.
