    Default Water Pump

    hey guys my water pump packed in yesterday morning so i thought cool il go get the part adn fit with the help of mums bf.Yeh that was a bad idea as mums bf has a good knowledge of cars and has fitted a few water pumps we thought we would have no probs.Then we realised how stupidly set up the RB30 motor is and how much u have to remove in order to take it off.We where just intrested to see if anyone else has had problems with this.

    P.S Car is now on a trailer ready to go to Holden on tuesday lol.We where not sucesful at the removing and replacing the pump so car is now undrivable with the cooling system in the boot.
