Re: CA Unofficial Whoring Thread!
platinium spark plugs can last 100k. The non platnium will only go 75k. I dont remember if honda used platinium or not. It should say in the back of the manuel when to change them.
Re: CA Unofficial Whoring Thread!
oh not mods, but his D.I.Y of forgotten tuneups. simple things like changing the rear emission filter, and like cleaning things in the engine bay. search it up

Re: CA Unofficial Whoring Thread!
100,000 is fine. My 96 camry last 160k on the original time belt, but i wouldnt recommend that. Just keep a eye on the belt and look for any cracks or rips.

Re: CA Unofficial Whoring Thread!
i thought that was axles.
i only get noises when i have a passenger going anything above 30 mph. its on and off though. and quiet when im alone. and quality of road is not really a factor.
