Transit921 Posted February 16, 2005 Author Posted February 16, 2005 just wanna know, if a 40 dollar waterpump is ok
ArmyofOne Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 just wanna know, if a 40 dollar waterpump is ok ← Go here: http://www.discounttoyotaparts.com Get one for a 1990-1991 camry V6. Its about $55. and its $50 cheaper than one from lexus. NEVER go aftermarket with something like a waterpump...it takes too much time to remove/replace to use anything but OEM.
ArmyofOne Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 awsome ← as i said, do not use aftermarket parts when doing something as critical as a waterpump. its hard to get to, and if the aftermarket opne fails early, you are back using 5-6 hours of labor when you could have spent the extra $10 and got the OEM. there are alot of times when aftermarket will do, a water pump is NOT one of them. CV axles are. and a PCV valve can be had from autozone for $5-$10. around there. aftermarket is fine in this case.
vcv10guy Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 I'd get the OEM spark plug wires only from the website Josh (ArmyofOne) provided or you can try www.lexus-parts.com. As for the spark plugs you may want to consider getting iridium spark plugs, which is supposed to last longer than platinum and provide overall better performance. There is some available on ebay and you can also purchase them from www.sparkplugs.com.
