Re: Honda fluids and parts. (TouringAccord)
What I mean is stuff like the plugs and wires, mobil one filter and oil to get locally. Should I get syn. or non for 5w-30? What is a good place to get those things locally for prices? I don't need anything on the net right now, but when I get my brake parts I will.

if u don't beat on your engine, and just use it for commute, u don't need synthetic.

Re: Honda fluids and parts. (taz77)
I went over to Honda and decided to go all out Honda fluids, I feel it is worth it to spend a little bit more to insure longevity and proper function etc. Not to bash anyone who uses otherwise. So I got HG (Honda Genuine, they put HG on their stuff) power steering fluid, HG brake fluid, HG oil filter - it was a filtech kind, HG MTF, 3 quarts even though I only need 1.9 quarts it said in the manual - may return it when I go back sometime, HG coolant, he thought that I would need two $15 gallon jugs so I could fill up little tank after filling the radiator, so I got it - I can always return it if needed, I also got replacement washers for the drain plugs for the coolant and the MTF, also got one for the filler plug on the MT, $2.50 for that one. I was missing a bolt for my bumper, they gave me a little plastic thing instead of a bolt that cost $4 
I said, "$4 for a thumbtack sized piece of plastic huh?" He was just like "yeah I know man." I will replace these fluids and then move on to replacing the oil and filter, spark plugs, wires and lub. elsewhere. Then I will inspect my brakes and most likely get new rotors, new rear shoes (or adjust, possibly rear disc conversions) and a new MC if needed. My brakes do not feel like they like braking.
