Replacing the Timing Belt, Hard or not so much Options

[acenova]

I need to replace my timing belt like last year basically. (maybe a lil exaggeration) But seriously, I know it's hard as hell to replace and you pretty much, if not completely, have to take out the engine, but is it an easy task or should I pay someone to do it and how much do you think it would cost to install. Maybe a good time to get some new gears and pulleys and stuff too maybe???

Take it in and have it done. If you miss one tog (I belive thats what its called) you throw the timming off and can damage your engine. I had a friend do his own on a V-Tec civic and missed one tog, started it up and it ran for about a minute then died, ended up replance the whole engine.
