Default 91,000 miles.. maintanence?

Hey there, I have a 2002 Honda accord 2.3L, so far my car has 91,000 miles on it.

I change oil every 4,000 miles, I change the trans fluid every 10,000 miles, spark plug + wires were already done, and my coolant was already flushed out.

I was wondering what other maintainence items I'm due for. I think my timing belt is due, but what other items do you recomend getting done along with the timing belt?

flush brakes

inspect plugs, wires, cap and rotor and replace if nessescary.
Rotate tires and balance if needed

along with the timing belt job be sure to do the water pump and all of the seals in that area (main seal, etc.). Also do the accessory belts. You may want to replace the thermostat if you haven't in a long time since you'll need to drain all the coolant.

t-belts are spec'd for 105K under normal driving. Replacements are spec'd for 120K. According to several honda techs that I have talked to, The V6 can usually go 120K before needing a new belt. I have heard this from techs in:

St Louis, MO,
Twin Cities, MN
Chicago, IL

The key is to have the belt inspected............at regular intervils
