Well my engine is leaking from alot of places right now, Not huge leaks but i do have to replace alot of seals, also there is oil inside my timing cover and the timing belt needs to be changed....So who here has rebuilt the 5S? I see the price to replace everything in my engine will be the cheapest way for me doing it myself, i just cant afford a mechanic right now...BUT the only thing holding me back is my lack of knowledge at this point. I am pretty determined and would love to do this task, but how difficult will this be? Thanks..

All in all you will end up spending 1000-1500$ depending on if you are going to be removing and installing the engine yourself and what exact parts your are going to be replacing! I am currently in the proccess of rebuilding my 5s and so far ive spent about 600$ just on a Head Gasket Set/Valve job/decking the head since it was kind of warped/some light porting and having the head tested on a flow bench! Next week i will be dropping off the block... No price for that yet
