Most threads I've seen on here (yes, I did search) stated that Mitsubishi doesn't manufacture water pumps. One of our vendors has quite a few on their site, and claim them to be OEM. I am replacing mine next weekend (went out on the highway >_<) and I will spend the $125 if need be, but if these are the same - I would rather purchase one of them.
In addition, which of these water pumps have you had good experiences with, if I should buy one of these (instead of from Mitsu):

Water Pump


**EDIT**
Actually, since I'm new to this, could you guys help me with my 60k maintenance list?

Balance Shaft Belt
Balance Belt Tensioner
Timing Belt
Timing Belt Idler Pulley
Timing Belt Tensioner Pulley


I am using this kit, from the same place as the water pump question, states that it is OEM
Timing Belt Kit

$101.48

Timing Belt Tensioner

$81.78

Water Pump

$125.68 or about $65 if you guys think it will be okay.

A/C Belt

$13.10

Power Steering Belt

$10.28

Alternator/Water Pump Belt

$6.06


Crank Pulley

$122.58


Thermostat

$20.02


I'm paying $250 for the labor, as I don't have the space, tools, or knowledge necessary to do this myself. Anybody want to help for a couple cases of beer instead? :D
 
Thanks. Any feedback on the parts though? I don't want to screw myself, but I don't want to overspend if the parts are truly OEM. I'm pretty sure that none of this (save the alternator and power steering belts) has been changed in the 180,000 miles on the car.
