I ordered the FCP kit because they also have a 5% discount code (It is "fiveoff" if anyone is interested). Also bought a Stern snub mount since I will be down there. I've been thinking about replacing the valve cover gasket along with the chain tensioner and gasket since the summer actually. Any recommendations for which online store to shop for these?
Also, I was wondering how you guys performed your coolant flushes.
Being Christmas season and an unemployed college student, this is really biting down on my summer job savings. I put up my guitar amp for sale on Craigslist and am considering donating plasma for cash. D:
Also, thanks to all of you who gave in some input. Happy holidays.

I sold plasma in college (many years ago) for beer money and stopped when I realized I was getting tracks on both arms. the needles they used back then had a large diameter to speed up the process of taking the blood out, centrifugeing it, and then putting the non-plasma blood stuff back in. there are easier ways to make $$. let me know if it is any better now in modern times.

I just started working on this project this afternoon and I have to say the worst part was removing the front bumper. It was such a PITA!! After that it was pretty much smooth sailing. I stopped right at the point where you remove the timing belt. I'm gonna wait until the kit ships in before messing with that. But I just want to say that the timing job seems like it'll take a lot to do but it is definitely easily achievable and not necessary to take to a shop or dealer to have done.
