the housing is also fine. the front looks fine. the rear is the only part that doesnt look that great but you can simply wipe that off with a rag. there is no corrosion to the metal. there is no rust on the outside either like you said (which doesn't matter anyway)

you really want the harness? Its totally unuseable, I took off the injector clips off it and a few other plugs to reconstruct the other harness. Pretty much bought two hacked harness and combined em to one good one. I mean if you really want it , Ill ship it to ya for w/e the shipping cost is.

the wires are good. But its really difficult to narrow and trace to wrap down sections of the wriing harness or to even locate where the injector plugs are now. Its just meesyy and everywhere , your brain will explode! lol I would save $$ and buy a legit harness or save more $$ and get a BRAND new harness for about $600. They build new harnesses. Everything will be plugnplay and you wouldnt have to go through the stress of wiring..

that pump looks fine to me, no pitting on the housing either which is a great sign. If you are having to recycle cans for parts money I would reconsider using the Water pump you posted pics off. If you know any mechanics with half a brain they can get those bolts out for you most likely.
Still waiting to start countdown clock for this engine from start to blow.

there is 1 broken bolt from the aip pump bracket which the OP is not using which affects nothing other than the air pump. it takes 2 ******* seconds to drill a bolt out.

one of the bolts on the THERMOSTAT HOUSING was broken WHICH I DIDNT ******* CHARGE HIM FOR AND WHICH HE DIDNT ******* NEED. STFU.

you are the one who assembled the first shitty motor which blew right? right?!?

exactly. you are recycling pop cans and trying to own a turbo fc? good luck with that. you gotta pay to play man. the whole car/swap is a hack job. probably would have been a better idea to save for all the parts you need and do it right the first time. would have been cheaper in the end.

Coming from IL the pump and housing looks fairly normal, but now owning an absolutely spotless 200,000 mile CA Miata and getting more experience with this place I can see how someone from SoCal might react negatively to receiving that water pump and housing.

People here (in California) don't know what rust is.

moral of story- dont buy used water pumps, thats like buying a used battery or fuel pump, you shouldnt expect it to last very long... its luck of the draw lol

Quit your bitching that water pump is fine. He payed for a used pump and received a used pump. I don't see what the problem is.
