Hi, I just took delivery of what I thought would be a QH water pump. I did my research and believed QH to be top quality. It turns out the pump that arrived is NPW. Can anyone reinforce or correct the below statement from the seller;

 

'No, it i is not a mistake the unit supplied is a QH boxed product. NPW manufacture the unit for QH. That is how they are supplied from QH. All the Japanese replacement units are supplied to us in that manner. We have sold just under 200 units this year for Japanese models and to date we have not had any returned as faulty.

 

We have no control over who manufactures the units for QH we sell them as they are supplied to us as QH replacement product. If you wish to return the product please do so at your convenience.'

 

Cheers chaps..

I can't comment on your particular pump, but was there any reason you didn't go for an OEM unit?

Never heard of QH, but Concept Z sell the NPW pump as OEM quality.

Thanks for the info. I'll stick with it in that case!

My advice - don't!

 

Stick with the OEM pump. QH (Quentin Hazel, for the uninitiated - a long established manufacturer) do indeed make quality parts. However I remember JeffTT posting a thread about after-market water pumps; and some have a much smaller impeller than the original. Hence there's no way it would shift the same volume of water as it pumps..... And since a properly functioning cooling system is vital for these cars, I would always advise people to go with the Nissan part. It's barely anymore expensive than most pattern items - and Mike at MJP will supply one, if you can't get it from Nissan.
