Hi all , i live in Adelaide South Australia , does anybody know were i can buy a water pump reasonably priced in Australia , or the best place/company to buy from overseas ? , thanks in advance .

 

do you have EBAY? I buy most my parts from them if you can wait for shipping,I find ebay duetschland the cheapest

 

Thanks for reply , yes we do , but Australian suppliers charge 3 times what US suppliers charge , i have never tried German Ebay ! , i dont mind if i had to wait a little while , its not my everyday driver, cheers.

 

Just an update , leak comes from pump to block gasket/seal , so ordered a new pump from the US 120Z$AUD , better then here 300-400 $ ! , anyhow wait 1-2 weeks now , then in she goes .

 

Hi again , finished job with the aid of a friend , 4 hours all up , cost me about 150$AUD , not a bad effort i think ! , cheers.

 

I plan to change mine,anything tricky to remove water pump,or special tools needed?

 

Dont need to remove fan/radiator . Both pump and ps pulleys must come off , and ps adjusterb , remember how it and belt come of , it will save u hours ! remove bottom pipe from under manifold to rear of car first , where it has an o ring joint , makes it easier to pull pump forward and undo pipe retaining bolts. knowing what i know now i reckon can be done properly in 2-3 hours ! , if they are dcharging u 100$ an hour labor , of course they will claim 5 hours ! , cheers and good luck.
