i believe i paid USD 93.75 for an OEM from IoS last month. Be careful--the 94-96 has a different snout than the 9093. either will bolt to the block, but you can guess what happens after that.

Use blue or copper RTV and replace the belt while youre there. Dont use anything but Nissan parts on something this critical!

I paid $100 for the water pump and $100 for two hours labor and shop parts (antifreeze and RTV).

I did mine myself and it was no trouble at all. Definitely replace all the belts and go ahead and get a new thermostat while you are at it. You wont want to remove the belts and fan for awhile after you have done it already!! Good luck!!
