on an average of 2,500 to 5,500 dollars, the cheapest route would be to purchase a good used motor and have that installed. if you have plenty of money have it rebuilt

How do you replace the timing belt on a 1999 Toyota RAV 4?
replancing a timing chain, specially in a time where engines come out more complicated every year, is someting I don't recomend doing by yourself unless you got a knowledgeable mechanic by yourside. I have seen this type of work done and the trick comes when the piston fire order must be set. A mechanic uses a special light for this purposes or a specially designed trick that works for him kept as the must precious secret. Maybe the Toyota corporation has taugh their mechanic the way this is done with just settting the belt in place with wichever piston goes on top first.
Will a broken timing belt on a 1999 Toyota celica damage the engine?
Almost certainly. The timing belt being damaged or broken can cause a number of different problems. I know in my 86 celica sx the result of a faulty/ old timing belt was a piston snapping off at the control rod, it was warped and bent because of wrong timing. i suggest if u have a broken/old/damaged timing belt you do not drive it till u get it replaced. Also see your mechanic for more advice

It is just about the hardest most difficult part of an engine to replace. The engine has to come out. The head has to be taken off. The rod of the piston has to be disconnected from the crankshaft. the top of the cylinder has to have a ridge reamer operated on it to get the piston out.
