The Helm's service manual is one of the best resources/investments you can make. It will tell you just about everything and anything about your car.

you wont. what you will is the factory service manual for sale. buy it and you'll see where every bolt in the car is located. As well as all removal/installation details on everypart of the car.

Which Helms do I get? They only list one for the 98 integra. I am guessing it covers all integra models but will it work for my 2001?

98 covers all integras, 98-01. However, if you plan on doingany ECU wiring, the 2000 supplement is nice. (they changed the ecu wiring, added the immobolizer, etc in 2000). But for practically everything else, the 98 manual will be perfect.

I have the Haynes Manual and IMO it is JUNK.

My Uncle who is a Mechanic said that in these books they tell you just enough to do basic stuff and so as not to take away the $$ from the professionals they only give up a little.

I think the Helms is a bit more Pricey and may cover twice as much as the Haynes or Chilton's
But IMO if you can afford it or have access to someone with it go with the Mitchell Repair Service Manuals.

The Helms is the Acura factory service manuals. There wont be a more detailed one.
