If you don't get the timing right, you could very easily ruin the valve train, as most Honda engines are interference engines. Doing the timing belt yourself is a big pain in the you know where, access is very limited and you have to fight with the crank pulley bolt (torque to 135 lb - ft on my engine, takes a lot more than that to get it loose). I have changed timing belts on other cars, but after reading the shop manual for my Civic I decided it was money well spent to have someone else do it.
