1993 Nissan Maxima - how do you know if the reason for not heating up quicker and hotter is a heater core or a thermostat. Are these expensive to have repaired?

Optional Information:
1993 Nissan Maxima 6 cyl.

Already Tried:
nothing - afraid it is going to cost a fortune as I just spent $1500 on brakes, tire, front end, etc.
