Thinking of doing timing belt '05 TL MT

hey guys,
so my car has 100,300 miles on it girl i bought it from when it had 92,000. never did any major maintenance i dont even thing she changed the anit-freeze. I am in the Military and we have a full on auto hobby shop with everything even ASE mech's. looking at the book today it says 4.5 hrs to do the job. i bought the timing belt and ordered the tension-er. so i am just wondering is there anything else i should do while in there? i already changed the rotors because they were horrible, she never change those either. please give me some feedback. or quick tips the mech at the shop says he thinks it will take me all day( 8hrs).

Make certain that they have the specific crank bolt removal tool for Honda/Acura, makes the job much easier.

Also, just go by the parts listed by the OP as the part numbers in the 2nd thread are for pre 3G models.
