Haynes and Chilton suck big time. Helms is the manuals that Honda techs use in the service dept.

The one for the 99-00 Si is the Service manual and is $67. Don't get the Shop manual $65.

HTH,

What is so bad about the Haynes manual, I have compared it to my friends helms manual and they are very similar. I don't see how his is $40 better than mine.

I have the haynes and it sucks. If you ever plane to actualy work on your car the haynes wont cut it. It leaves you guessing and sometimes doesn't even give you all the information to compleat the task. If you just want to lean how to change the oil the haynes is for you. If you want to do engine work like valve adjustments, overhauls, ect. I would sugest getting the helms.

I won't even begin to go there......

I see you are a newbie and I'll play nice.

You are only 16, been here 32 days. You have much to learn. Sit back and enjoy.....
