Hello everyone, my name is Marty and I am a student at UTI in Houston!! I've been driving my 95 Accord for about a year now and have really grown pretty attached to it. I've always been a Honda owner, with civics and integras, but acquired this gem from my sister for $500!! I couldn't turn my head to the deal, considering it only had 90,000 miles on it when I bought it. I had never really considered tuning any Accords, but the more and more I drive this one, the more and more I want it to be exactly the way I want it to be. Mods to date are minimal: short ram intake and skunk2 drop springs fixed with kyb gas shocks and struts. I have a new brakes kit coming in in the next week or so to add a little stopping power to it. Anyways, long story short, I figured a forum would be a good place to make some friends who have a wealth of knowledge on the subject already. So I look forward to meeting many of you and also learning as much as I can about my car!!!

 

cool to have you.
That is a nice car, I like the 5th gens

When is the last time the timing belt was changed?
If it has not been changed you are driving a ticking time bomb as when (not if) the belt breaks your valves and pistons will become close friends and they do not get along so well (your pistons will hit the valves)

Welcome to the forum, sounds like a good deal on the car.

 

I changed the timing belt shortly after I bought the car, when I did the water pump. Did a couple of other things while I was in there too. It was such a PITA to get to I figured I'd just replace all the parts I could. I don't like trying to get into the timing belt housing.

Thanks for the warm welcome! X]
