Are you sure its a radiator problem? Don't want to make it sound like you don't know what you're talking about but my car was overheating and I had coolant all over the engine bay... anyway, turned out to be the water pump.

Any decent radiator shop should be able to find the cause of the problem fairly quickly - which means cheap to diagnose. Fixing costs will then depend on what the real problem is, and what, if any, other work you decide to do at the same time.

Good work done quickly by a professional can be cheaper than shoddy work done slowly by an el-cheepo mechanic.

Do not buy a second hand water pump. For what the amount of work to replace one, you don't want to do it twice.

2JZ water pump fit apparently so use it as reference as there are no 1JZ ones. Someone please confirm that.

Ty, if your having a lot problems I can recommend my personal mechanic to you. He prefers to work on Toyota's and knows the 1JZ motors well as there are a few of us that own toyo's and we all go to him. He's very helpful with info and progress on whats being done, he will always call before doing major/pricey jobs and let you know what else is wrong with your car. PM me if you want his number.

This is the one you need FROM TOYOTA --- Water pump, P/N 16100-49846

I paid $115 for mine when i did it at the end of last year. I used the existing thermostat housing though as i could not be fckd pulling that out.

Ty, i picked up a 94 soarer im wrecking. You can buy the radiator and water pump and whatever else off me. The radiator has been replaced with a new one and therefore is not the toyota one that dies after a few years
