Full Tune up??

[bxjdm]

What do i need to change for my car to be as healthy as it may be? i want to know [B]EVERYTHING[/B] so i can start to buy the stuff and have it done.

[quickangel93]

change spark plugs, wires, pcv valve, distributor and rotor, change timing belt and water pump, check for any oil leaks, change engine and tranny oil & filter. should cost around 450 in parts to get it running strong again.

my car only have 79k miles original so i wouldnt ahve to do the timing belt right?

Technically its a 90k service thing. So I guess not. But its so old you should probably check it. Crakcs. And then adjust it. Atleast from what I've read.

You can go to local auto parts store to save money on the plugs, I saved like 50%. Get NGK though.

Your car is 14 years old at least... so that rubber belt is 14 years old as well. Changing it would be wise. (of course, my 94 H22 has 110k on it and the timing belt is original... do as I say, not as I do! )

plugs

hey mate, everyone is recommending NGK plugs, and just to let you know, just get the standard NGK ones coz they are heaps cheaper and unless your really going for performance tuning just stick with those, the iridium ones are good, but i dont think they are worth the extra money really. Also, if you are podantic about your tuning, get a replacement air filter coz to replace them costs so much damn money, about $50 (I live in Australia though so it may be different, 50AUD = about 42USD), so i recommend getting K&N filter or something that is warranted for a massive amount of kilometres, it will save you cash in the long run. Also mate, if your topping up or replacing power steering fluid, only use the genuine honda stuff and dont let any salesman tell you any different. My father owns a honda dealership over here and he uses Cooper EFI filters as well, best way to go. Ryco or cooper oil filters are also pretty good, and a lot cheaper than the stuff honda make. If you are environmentally concious as well, get the catalitic converter sussed out and replaced if it needs it (Im a natural resources management and environmental science student so these things matter to me!!) Also ive found that plug leads make a big difference. In regards to oils, ive found castrol magnatec the best, but the honda stuff is pretty good too. Hopefully this info is relevant to you because the brands and temperature etc may be different here in Australia.

Take it easy and enjoy your CB7 mate

In addition to this, should I get NGK wires or go OEM wires?
