Well, the 85 is still at the shop. After carb rebuild, oil cooler fix, ect..now the water pump & radiator are leaking. If you wuz me, where would you get them? Dealer is $151 for pump, $413 for radiator!! Mazdatrix is $51 and $201. I love this car, but it's slowly eatin' up the ol' bank account. I'm a little hesitant about the junkyard, you don't know what you're getting for sure.
Suggestions? Thanks!

Radiator cools great.
Any auto parts store will carry a reman water pump for under $40.

 

I would get the pump from mazda trix because it is the same the dealer sales. Your dealer is ripping you off, the part is 55.00 from my dealer.
I would by the radiator from anywhere.

 

I got a radiator, you will probally have to remove the brackets from yours to this one, I did a little cutting on the brackets But hey its free and doesnt leak!

As usual, you're the life-saver!

I just PM'd Ya!

 

No problem! Cleaning out the clutter in the garage, I got a shitload more stuff

If you want a good used water pump, PM damon he just bought a complete 12A block from me

 

Just don't get an aftermarket water pump... they're a crap design compard to the OEM ones.

As far as the radiator goes you should upgrade it to a 3-row core. (assuming the 85 stocker is a 2-row)

 

I got the radiator coming from MIKE-P (THANKS!!) and just ordered the pump from mazdatrix, just to make sure I get one that works. They're not all that much there, anyway.
Thanks for all the help!!
Wonder why some dealers have different prices for stuff than others??

 

I bet he quoted you the price for the water pump and the water pump housing. It's happened to me as well.
