Tell us what year/model your car was and home many miles were on it.

 

'93 Prelude Si with 116k miles when it snaped...

 

144,788 miles on original BB6 timing belt.

 

95 h22, snapped at around 85,000.....this was last summer and the car had been sitting on a used car lot for about 6-8 months before i bought it.....so that is probably a contributing factor

snapped in 4th gear at 1000rpms as i was slowing down to turn into my apartment......got lucky no damage other than the belt

 

93 h23 with 106k...happened in 2002 or so and fucked my life up good

 

keep them coming guys. This is interesting because I figured I'd hear some snapping with fewer kms than this.

 

1984 prelude, back in 2003. Had 175xxx Km on it, was climbing a hill at a slow pace due to traffic, snapped (prolly doing 30km/hr). No damage, other then needing a new belt.

1993 Prelude, 2004. F22 engine, had 270xxxkm on it, was rolling thru a three-way stop lol, snapped before i could even go into 2nd gear. No damage. Had a JDM h22 swap waiting to go in, so i could care less. No damage though, installed a new belt, checked for bent valves, nothing. Ran like a top.

I know i have a horsehoe.....

 

Belt & auto tensioner were replaced at 90K with the headswap. At 117K Auto tensioner failed causing the belt to come lose, rubbing on everything inside the timing cover and shredding the belt till it was about a half inch thick. I replaced the belt and there was no internal damage.

 

94 Si, 90k.....bent valves (driving in 4th gear @45 mph)

reason i had to get the h22 swap

 

H23 174xxx still running or factory belt, i should probably change those just to be safe
