The timing belt on this car is due every 70,000miles. So if it has not been changed then it is well overdue and my advice would be to change it a.s.a.p

ALL Nissans are interferance motors, most hondas have interferance motors depending on the engine model installed. Hopefully you engine is still good!!
yes. Also don't forget the timing belt and water pump should be changed at around 90-100,000 mi. Some civic's have interference heads, meaning that if the timing belt breaks while the engine is running, the valves hit the pistons (not good).
If you have never changed a cambelt (timing belt) then it is not recommended that you attempt it. It is a job for a mechanic, as getting the cam timing wrong on reassembly is easy to do and can have disastrous consequences. It is easy enough once you know how, and if you are reasonably mechanically able, I'd suggest getting a repair manual for your vehicle that has a step by step procedure for timing belt replacement. Companies like Haynes produce very good repair manuals.
