Re: (attentionwhore)
the only hard part to a timing belt change is breaking the crank pulley bolt. Just make sure you torque it when you re-install it and add some blue loctite. Other than that remember to replace your tensioner and water pump while your in there.

its just a pain because of the little room you have to work with, unless the engine is out of the car. Also make sure to get a new bolt for the tensioner, its kinda soft.

yup...a REAL pain
If this is your first timing belt change, expect to spend a day on it, but it really won't be that hard. Any problems you have will be (as stated before) with the crank pulley bolt. Just make sure you have a nice long breaker bar and quality sockets, and you should be fine.
Good luck.

Re: (ddd4114)
Obviously no need to drain the coolant if you are not changing the water pump. Also, you don't need the crank pulley on to get the timing right. There is a mark on the crank spocket that can be aligned with a mark on the oil pump to indicate TDC with the crank, and then make sure that the cam is at TDC as well.

Um, yeah. It took me a while to replace my oil pump. Of course there is more to it than just this, but even just getting to the point of taking the timing belt off took a while. Now I could replace the water pump, oil pump, and timing belt in about an hour.
