Default Buy new, with metal impeller. ecstuning.com Maybe not cheapest but not a place to cut corners

Don't buy the used water pump that looks brand new at 60k miles that someone was trying to sell on Ebay.

(I emailed the seller on that one and the reply I got back regarding my concerns wasn't friendly....althought my comments to them weren't real nice either)

Default don't do it...

order new with a metal impellar. If you are replacing the water pump, replace timing belt, rollers and tensioner. It is definitely not optional.

You might get a used one from someone who just changed belts. :-)
