Grinding noise and smoke coming from 93 accord coupe when startin

Car. Stopped after a couple of seconds. The noise and smoke came from driver's side in engine. The noise stopped and hasn't returned since. This happened Thursday evening, it's now Sunday morning. Seems to be running fine now. Is there something that I should be looking out for in the near future with this problem? Should I still drive it? Will I need to get a new car soon?

It is possible that your waterpump is going out.

It could be your brake splash shield that's slightly bent into and rubbing up against the brake rotor, causing that noise in reverse and forward. It will make a different noise going in different direction. Have it checked and if necessary simply bent back into place.

Doesn't want to keep running and some grinding noise when startin
From what you describe I would suspect that the starter is not fully engaging. I'm assuming that the grinding noise you hear when you try to engage the starter is INSTEAD of the engine cranking. If I assumed wrong, ignore the following:
Pull the starter, check the flywheel for excessively worn areas. Most of the time the flywheel is ok, it's just the starter. Any time you disassemble a starter you should replace the bushings and brushes. Never remove the starter with the battery still connected. Remove the negative terminal from the battery before you attempt to remove the starter.

Harsh grinding noise while in gear and car won't drive!
Had the exact same thing in my 93 and it was the CV Axles - they have a C clip that hold them in place - sometimes the C clip and fail; sometimes you simply have to replace the CV Axles - much cheaper then a tranny; a good suspension shop should be able to diagnos w/o it costing you an arm and a leg.

Smoke around belt and sparks on Pulley holding belt
Most likely AC clutch assembly. Have it checked & unplug wires to it, if necessary, to use temporarily, so that clutch doesn't engage.
