HELP!!!!! JDM D15B VTEC Water Pump
OK, so I asked this before, and was told to use a VX water pump. I bought the VX pump, but id did not fit, so I went to the parts store & they checked through all years of civic & could not find a water pump that matches the JDM pump.
Which pump do I get?

OK, I figured it out. It's a CDM (Chinese Domestic Market) Motor, and the VX pump does fit, but I had to go to 3 parts stores be4 I found one that was exactly the same. Wierd. Thanks,.......

This is why you get an OEM water pump from the HONDA dealer.
