really depends on where ur belt snapped. sometimes ur lucky and the engine is fine just some dents or something like that... other times with hondas the engine is surely scrap. take it to a shop and have them check it out first.

you can never do it too early. it might be wasting money, but not as much as doing it too late[&:]
