i was planning on ordering a helms manual tonight, but before i take the plunge, i just want to verify that this is the right one:

also, should i bother with any of the supplements? thanks for all your help.

Yup that's the correct one. Some say the supplement is useful for wiring but all I ordered was the main one.

 

great -- thanks!

If you plan to do a lot of wiring, buy the supplement.

 

the supplement will have to wait until i have some more money to kick around. haha...i had to sell one of my calculus books to be able to afford the main manual.

I never bought the supplement...never have needed it either


Until I need it, I'll be without one. Some do swear its useful though

 

There's no need, since the manual you purchased include wiring maps and diagram. The supplement just breaks things down easier ... showing physical wiring routes while the one you have may be more logical ... (Hopefully I am making sense)!

 

do the service manuals list part numbers?

 

you are gonna love this boook... when i first got it. i read it like it was my comic book. it has sooooo much info. id take it on trips with me.

 

haha...that's why i had it sent to indiana where i'm at school instead of phoenix where the car is.

^^ now thats what im talking about....

oh and get a binder to put it in. because if your like me and you use it all the freakin time and it gets all greasy the bindings will go. so get a 3" (maybe 3.5") binder and make it a good home.

 

another difference, however it may affect you is LSD bearings, etc. There IS some information in there..

 

Great Investment....it's worth it's weight in gold. I'm very happy I purchased mine. It's also funny how similar the other honda cars are as well. I was working on my wife's accord and pulled the Helm's out for help on the Upper control arms and ball joints. The diagrams for the Integra matched our Accord perfectly and I figured out I only needed to buy the ball joint boot ($3), not the entire upper control arm ($155) that the dealer insisted I had to do.

I don't have any supplements either and haven't found any need for them yet.

 

the accord and integra are similar.. that is odd. i know the teg and civic are. i was at work taking the susp from an accord.. and it was really similar to my integra.. im sure the helms had real similar specs too.
