don't worry. Nobody knows exactly what their doing until they do it on these cars, that's half the fun right. The task is pretty straight forward. Clarks Garage is a pretty good right up, then if you run into trouble You can always post it up here. Make sure you have the timing belt tools to remove and install the rollers and also put tension on the belt. Also don't forget to buy the oil pump drive gear, as clarks points out they wear a wicked grove and will be prone to leaking. Good Luck.

Yup, Clarks Garage write up, new oil pump drive gear w/new seal, and post here if you have any problems along the way. I'd personally do the balance shaft seals too, while you're in there. And then the oil cooler is just right around the corner and a clear shot while you have everything else off ...
