Just thought I would share that I got my water pump in finally at the beginning of this week. Quick intro; My water pump was making nasty noises and the shaft on the pump that the pully was attached to was wobbling all over causing a coolant leak from the pump. I pulled the car into the garage and began slowely tearing it down while I waited for parts. I finally got it torn completely apart and still waited another 2 days before the pump came in, then I slowely began to put it back together. This was the first time I have ever had to do a water pump on a Z32. I must say it was alot easier than I was thinking, but it was still a pain in the ***. Well, the car started up just fine with no noise and no leaks! Just thought i would share!

Nice job, if I ever need a tear down I have to rent space to do major work on my Z or take the thing in. Can't wait to get a house, or rather a garage with a bed lol

Thanks! Yeah, it wasn't too bad, but if you anyone needs to do one, I would reserve a weekend or a full day instead of a couple hours.
