Out of the car= DIY
In the car= Funk Dat! ;)

Unless you have to rob your mother for the $270, I'd say take it to the dealer and drink hot chocolate. ;)

crank pulley easy! remove flywheel inspection plate, jam a flat ti screwdriver in the flywheel, 19mm socket and long bbreaker bar, and a lot of foot pound means pushing on it with your feet, I did multiple belts and water pump on both d16 and b16 1st time took me 1.5 hours, now I do them so quick.

Ok, nobody has said anything about the crankshaft pulley being a mother ------- bitch. I hope you have a big impact to get it off or at least a gigantic breaker bar and some friends to help hold ----. :-\ What I did so that I never ever had to deal with that damn thing again was I cut the timing belt cover off with a dremel. I could change my timing belt in about 3 minutes like that.

when I pulled my head off I dropped one of the cam keys during reasembly and I thought it went into the timing belt cover so I spent a week figuring out how in the hell to pull off the pulley, and when I got it off the key wasn't even in there. Where did you buy your timing belt for $25? mine cost 60-75 at napa, bunch of jackasses.
