YogiR33 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Heres a pic of an Rb25DET water pump http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/4964/dscn0887mu6.jpg pretty basic really, all u gotta do is take the radiator fan off and then its jus a matter of unboltin the pump off and jus use some of that gasket in a tube stuff to seal it. Dunno if the Cam belt will get in the way though, still if u got a hoist it should be easy as, jus remember to drain the radiator first Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/130330-how-hard-is-it-to-change-a-water-pump-on-a-rb25det/#findComment-2412139 Share on other sites More sharing options...

(i hope i haven't forgotten anything) cheers, -Patrick Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/130330-how-hard-is-it-to-change-a-water-pump-on-a-rb25det/#findComment-2415222 Share on other sites More sharing options...
