| Timing Belt on Integra GS |

My DD 99 Integra just crossed the 100K mark and I want to do the timing belt...not sure exactly when / if it was done before. I recently hit a deer with it on 50 so it will be off the road getting the front end fixed so I'll do it while I have something else to drive.
What is the best source for tech manuals / instructions? Do I need any special Honda/Acura tools? What else should I do while I'm in there? I know water pumps are often done with timing belts, should I do that here?
Any tips or tricks welcome...

I only read through page one so I have no idea about $$ paid, future of the car, etc. I do think it's pretty cool regardless. As the title says, 1970 Camaro was found with 1100 miles. Apparently the original owner drove it (sparingly) and then got a door ding in a parking lot. He got so mad that he parked the car and hasn't driven it since.
My dad had a 69 or 70 Camaro in college, so maybe that explains why I think it's cool? Either way, it's a more or less "time capsule" of a car.
Read it here.

1999 Mazda Miata. 100,000 miles. 1 small dent on hood from someone backing up into the car. Car has the following:
Factory Nardi steering wheel.
Factory front air dam.
Factory side skirts.
Factory Torsen Limited Slip differential (excellent in rain and slippery roads).
Factory Bose am/fm/cd/cassette sound system.
A/C blows cold.
Heat blows nice and warm.
Top is in excellent condition.
Paint is metallic green and in good original condition.
Tires have about 60% life left.
Brakes are fairly new.
New Valve Cover Gasket
New Radiator.
New Belts.
New Thermostat.
New alternator ($200).
New Battery ($125).
Factory windscreen.
Factory cover for the top (used when the top is down).
$5500 OBO
This is a very desireable car. I was going to turn it into a Spec Miata Race Car but have decided to sell it instead, it is too nice of a car. I just recently returned from a 2 week trip to South Fl. with this car. What a blast to drive around town and on the highway. If you think these are chick cars, you are mistaken. These are fun cars to drive. This one has had all the routine repairs completed since I was originally going to keep it. Things change and I want the money for another project so make me an offer.....

| Honda pulling out of F1, who's next? |

I was thoroughly stunned yesterday when I heard rumors that Honda was pulling the plug on F1 due to the global recession. Sure enough el presidente made an official announcement today:
Quote:We, Honda Motor Co., Ltd., have come to the conclusion that we will withdraw from all Formula One activities, making 2008 the last season of participation.
This difficult decision has been made in light of the quickly deteriorating operating environment facing the global auto industry, brought on by the sub-prime problem in the United States, the deepening credit crisis and the sudden contraction of the world economies.
Honda must protect its core business activities and secure the long term as widespread uncertainties in the economies around the globe continue to mount. A recovery is expected to take some time.
Under these circumstances, Honda has taken swift and flexible measures to counter this sudden and expansive weakening of the marketplace in all business areas. However, in recognition of the need to optimize the allocation of management resources, including investment regarding the future, we have decided to withdraw from Formula One participation. We will enter into consultation with the associates of Honda Racing F1 Team and its engine supplier Honda Racing Development regarding the future of the two companies. This will include offering the team for sale. ...
The insane cost of F1 aside, one has to wonder if some of the happenings in F1 in the last few years influenced this decision. For one, F1 does have a race in North America any more and that is their largest market. Secondly and probably more importantly, the FIA was rumbling about going to a spec engine and surely such a move would be of no interest to Honda from a technical standpoint. It leads one to wonder what's the point?
Then there's the fact that HF1 has performed terribly these last two seasons. Then again, if they had won the title this year I guess they'd have good reason to leave too.
I feel really disappointed on one hand, but on the other hand I'd much rather see Honda drop out of F1 than see them forced to layoff people for the first time in their history or pull the plug on Moto GP. I just feel bad that this third era of Honda F1 history will go down as a failure.
With Honda closing up shop I have to think someone like Toyota or Renault can't be too far behind. Renault in particular has been on the bubble for awhile and they don't have nearly the cash reserves someone like Honda does. Not to mention the fact that France just lost their GP. Toyota has already sunk billions into F1 and at this point they won't look bad if they leave too. If one more team folds the grid will be below the minimum number of cars F1 is contractually bound to field. That could be a huge disaster for the sport.
Not that I would be that sad. Bernie Ecclestone and Max Mosely have done so much damage to the sport in recent years that I'd derive a little bit of pleasure from seeing them get hurt. But on the other hand it's a shame because Formula 1 could be so much better than it is right now.

My buddy is about to lose a ton of data unless he can get a control board from the particular hard drive listed in the title (if you missed it: Western Digital Caviar WD800JD-00JNC). Apparently the Model Revision (the last four in the long ass part name) is very important. It's from Dell - so, if you've got part staches I'm sure he'd really appreciate if you took the time to go through them. He's willing to pay pay whatever price is fair.
