F3DERAL Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 I got a 93 SC300 and my water pump broke. Every store I went to asked me if I had 11 or 10 tightening holes and I dont really know, I am pretty sure that 93 SC300s only come with only one type of stock engin and there is a big difference between them and its about $130 difference between the 10 and 11 hole water pump. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simple, Call a lexus dealer parts department and ask them. I highly advise changing your timing belt while you are in there. I just called my lexus dealer 651-483-6111 and I was told there are 9 mounting holes. Part # 16100-49837-83 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jzz30 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 well how about making sure they have both pumps and take off the one you have then go get the new one at the parts store or take it with you to make sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. I would buy OEM parts. Purchase online from autopartswarehouse.com or lexusparts.com or similar vendors. Shop around for best deal.
