wow now it starts to get fun!!! *fires up flame thrower*
Listen, "********", from the sound of it you dont know **** about life outside the walls of a learning institution... if you are really struggling, then do what FRT said: sell the damn thing for a little less with the problem known (believe it or not, I would buy it and fix that **** myself if I had the cash and in the area) or sell off the turbo parts and keep it stock for now.
Cranks arent that expensive, I have a 96' 1.8l crank sitting here that I would sell for you for $100 shipped just to help you out. Your car would be fine if it didnt have this shitty problem... unless you really dont know much about internal engine (which is fine), but finding an installer for the crank is cake, and if you werent such an ******* maybe someone on here would help you out in the florida area, but you have already set your rep in stone.
Edit: also, I could get that **** done in a day with 100% dedication if I had to replace the crank.

n00b bites off more than he can chew, comes to mt for advice, is asked to provide information, fails to provide said information, complains of expense despite several posts proving this a moot point, reveals that he is an untrustworthy seller, goes on a rant.
Yes, it's a dog-eat-dog world, and yes we hate you, and yes I would say this to your face. Get over it. Or, if you want closure, come up to Jacksonville mid-August and I can show you how well I hide behind my keyboard.

Ok, well I decided to keep the car because of the fact of everyone making me feal like a god damn ********. First of which the car isn't going to break anytime soon. I give it a good well over 50k miles before it even starts to wear the timing belt. Second of which I would love to see one of you ***** ***** say this **** to my face and act like you do on the forums " all big and bad " Safe behind your computer screens.. Third, I only bought the car a month ago with this problem. A full time college student .. I can't afford a fucken crank nor do I have the time to pull the motor out and do everything on my own and have it up and running for monday to get to school. I don't have my parents to support me any more. This is a dog eat dog world.
2. I am actually a nice guy, I would have pulled the pulley off my self and checked if I were there. But if you refused then I would have called you an idiot. Then, if you would have called me back, I would have tried to fix it again, but you would have been uncompliant again. See what road I am heading down?
3. There is a 90 percent chance I would kick your ***, and I would definitely tell you all of this in real life. This is probably not a car a broke college kid needs.
4. ******' is how it is spelled. Fucken, is short for ******* a chicken, see how it works? **** out of *******, and cken out of chicken merge to make a word that describes your life story.
5. Post a picture. You are a dipshit. God, get macro on, remove crank pulley, snap snap snap. Take more than one, because you are probably shakey from bird flu, contracted from number 4. This process should take no more than 30 minutes to an hour. Plenty of time for you to return to studying for your huge super hard political science/human relations test. I would bet money just about that the crank pulley hasn't even been removed.
6. Parents not supporting is a great reason to man up and work on your own car.

Now the stupid thing is you never posted a single pic of the carnage. I'm guessing the area around the timing belt on the crank is okay. The problem with the damaged area around the other pulley is your belts falling off other than the fact that your "perfectly balanced crank" is no longer balanced due to the pulley wobbling all over the place.
