Just wondering what are your experiences with not geniune nissan waterpumps , since the nissan ones are liek 175 and aftermarket ones are like $60. This is an example:

Personally on my car I use genuine Nissan for all those things. Partly because I get trade price, but mainly cos I'm so incredibly anal its not funny

Having said that, I'm a 4th year apprentice mechanic and I use aftermarket parts all day everyday on a range of different cars, and never have a problem. I'll admit I never buy over eBay, but thats just the anal thing again.

personally i'd go with the genuine water pump. i'm not against non genuine stuff, but certain stuff i would stick genuine.

hi mate, i have used truflow water pumps dozens of times on skylines and hundreds of times on all vehicles with no issues.

just a vl rb 30 pump. ive had genuine pumps fail, and just the other day i had an issue with fitting a nismo n1 pump.......go figure. a good quality aftermarket pump will be fine. not the cheap chinese ones.

Yeah I was leaning towards geniune thanks.
