Will be doing my timing belt on 504/2000.

Just want to confirm part numbers and what I need.

I also seen the OEM water pump is the same as Aisin WPM-012. Is this correct ?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, I believe Aisin is the OEM brand to Mitsu. I'll be using a Gates belts/water pump setup BUT with a OEM tensioner.

If it was a stock motor I would use the Gates Tensioner. But I have a couple pretty pennies in my motor so OEM it is.

Yep, the Aisin pump is the same as Mitsu just with no Mitsu part number. I've used a handful of them over the years with great results. $50 trumps $150 every time.
