thatd be a lot of scanning, just buy one this way you can bring it with you wherever you go ;)

ugh, well I'm the kinda guy who likes to save an extra $60-70 bucks when ever he can, but I guess I'll have to do that. :mad:

Ive got the Helms for the Civic but I dont have a scanner and that much time on my hands... Its well worth the $65 for it... Buy it.. Itll save you way more then that in the long run..;)

yeah, ive heard that, but exactly what is it gona do for me. I know your gonna say 'it's got everything" like everyone else does, but I dont have much of a creative mind to figure out what everything is. Gimme some examples!

Itll help you work on your car trouble free.. Its got everything from torque specs of each nut and bolt in your car, wire diagrams, shows you the procedures for adding and removing about every part on the car, even tells you what fluids you should run for whatever. Its got about anything youd like to know about your car, in its stock for of course. These things can save you big money if you work on your car yourself. If you dont then youd probably be wasting your money.

they are also great to have during engine swaps.....one manual for your car, one for the car which the engine came out of. makes things A LOT easier :)
