No, I have not replace a timming belt before but from what I heard you don't need to take the timming belt off in order to replace the water pump.

Yes you do. This is a 4-5 hour job for an experienced mechanic. Do not try this yourself.

I changed mine Tuesday. I think I know the job pretty well. The WP bolts and tensioners are in the way.

I believe you, I know you're a vendor on our forum EVO SE GA, plus your accomplishments with your car speak for themselves!
Thanks.
