Look for an older Honda accord with a manual transmission (MT). MT cars were made in Japan and last forever. I had a 1999 MT Accord and put over 600,000 miles on it. I changed the timing belt every 100K and kept newer tires on it.
Get Dayco. They are made in Italy anyway and from the dayco "HT" material.
I have them in my 2v no issues
Honda timing belt kit worked out nice and came with good instructions.
I got my kit from MetalMan Parts. Dayco timing belt, Continental serpentine belt, Litens tensioner, INA rollers, Graf metal pump and all the recommended hardware \ud83d\udc4d
def go through and do the timing belt, and all the oil seals behind it. They're so happy once they're not leaking anymore
I just put a timing belt in it at 144k. Easy 1 day job. Thats really all I have had to do to it aside from tires, brakes and oil changes in the last 6 years.

Timing belt seems cheap,im guessing aftermarket parts? Id ask for honda genuine parts if i were you- honda tech here,seen cheap aftermarket timing belt components fail and cause engine damage. Valve adjustment seems a lil high,it is tedious to perform. Reason for adjustment? We only adjust if the valves are noisy or run into misfire issues. Rest of parts are within the timing belt work procedure,ask if they can do better since they’re already there. Id skip the valve adjust
Wet belts dont like new fuel, and dont like low mileages... Found the below information which backs up what ive been saying for a long while, the ecoboost engines are fine...if they cover high mileages and oil is changed regularly.... Dayco, a leading belt manufacturer, has investigated the impact of ethanol and petrol contamination on its timing belts. Their research has indicated that the presence of fuel in the oil, especially due to short, low-speed drives, can overwhelm the oil’s additives and cause belt degradation. This means that the belts may fail before their expected lifespan, even if the belt itself is of high quality. The Importance of Proper Maintenance and Usage: To mitigate the risk of premature belt failure due to ethanol and petrol contamination, it’s crucial to maintain a vehicle properly. This includes avoiding short, low-speed journeys that can lead to fuel contamination of the oil. Regularly changing the oil and ensuring the oil filter is in good condition can help prevent fuel from entering the engine oil. If a vehicle is stored for extended periods, it’s advisable to use fuel stabilizer to prevent ethanol from separating and potentially damaging the fuel system, including the belt.
Be careful who you purchase from. I bought one a year or so ago everything was great but the timing belt itself broke. I got lucky and didn't bend any valves. Bought a Dayco belt and haven't had any problems.
