RX-7s are even more notorious for never having timing belts snap... the last 400k+

The second timing belt job I've done in my life. The first was on my 1985 Civic.

Some PB-Blaster and a pulley puller will work well.
Put grease on it when you put it back on.
An impact wrench is the ONLY way to pull the crank bolt on an automatic tranny car.
And I found that a 2 gallon 1.5HP Craftsman compressor actually works pretty well with my impact wrench.

pele: depends on the car. the supra crank pulley is put on with 195 ft-lbs of force, and if its weathered, it gets a little rustlock requiring more like 250-300 ft-lbs to break it loose. took me a breaker bar and about 6 feet of extensions to pop the rustlock on mine.

Besides, my impact is capable of more than 300 ft/lbs.
PB-Blaster > RustLock
Like I said, this Corolla was under water. I had to use several breaker bars to get the wheel lugs off, then a sledge to get the wheel off of the hub.
