Maintenance at 200,000km

What kind of things should be replaced or inspected around the 200K mark for the 99-00 civics?

For sure:
Timing Belt
Water Pump

Take a look:
dizzy cap
spark plugs
spark plug wires
air filter

Check:
brakes
Oil
Rad Fluid
Tranny Fluid
Tires-wear, pressure, balanced, aligned
CV joint Boots- make sure they arnt torn or the salt and sand will eat the joint up

Jumper the pin to get the CEL like blinking.. Get the code and go from there.

As for timing belt, you're safe for a 100K at least. 96+ are 160K, 100K under extreme conditions which is Canada.. I've had many cars go to 120-140K no problem..
