Water pump AISIN or GMB

Used Aisin for my 2000lx.

We used an Aisin water pump. We have had no problems with this water pump as of 11k miles on the engine rebuild now.

I replaced both mine and my dad's with GMB. Mechanic recommend it too. So far so good.

I had my timing belt done by not a Volvo specialist specifically, but a “European brand” mechanic. They used an Aisin pump / Gates belt kit and life is good.

There’s a really good kit that come with gates timing belt, tensioner, idler, Aisin water pump, Toyota cam and crank seals and a serpentine belt for $350 I used it and everything has worked perfectly

You should be fine with the Aisin. They were the OE manufacturer for a lot of makes.

I have their water pump on my Rx7, it's been A-Okay for over 3 years.

Excellent time to learn to do it yourself and buy a $65 water pump and timing belt kit. Dirty cheap for the miata. Just find a kit with a GMB water pump and a name brand belt.

I've used GMB some 10+ years ago. They were made in Japan and came with a lifetime warranty.

I put in a GMB in my '02 two years ago, and it's leaking already.
