not particually hard
just a hell of a lot of things yo have to remove to acsess it.
id allow the whole weekend to do it.
most workshops prefer to have the car for a couple of days to do the 150,000km service

just a crank pulley puller.
but you should replace the tensioner, tensioner pulley, idler pulley and water pump while your there...
ive done a few timing belts on these and 75% of the tensioners were due for replacement but these were on cars that were used off road, one was full of mud causing the belt to skip a tooth on the belt.
good luck
