So I am getting Ready to put a turbo kit in and I figure It would be best to put a clutch, Head Gasket, 45,000 miles on my car so probably a timing chain, and maybe a koyo radiator. SO with all that said do you think it would just be easier to pull out the whole motor and tranny or leave it in. ALSO can the motor and tranny be pulled out with out dropping the subframe on jack stands?

 

i dont see why you'd really need the new timing chain. i think that is fine. also a radiator is not really required.. the OEM cooling system is sufficient unless you are going to track it.

 

when should the timing chain be replaced i mean since i am putting a head gasket i will have the timing chain off

 

The timing chain should be replaced every 60,000mi. If your going to do a head gasket, just do the chain with it to get it out of the way. If your doing a clutch and headgasket and timing chain, it would be a lot easier on you if you just pull the motor. That is if you have the right tools (cherry picker...)

 

 

Dude, this car has a timing chain not a timing belt. Chains don't generally need replacing, ever.
