Used Aisin for my 2000lx.
We used an Aisin water pump. We have had no problems with this water pump as of 11k miles on the engine rebuild now.
I replaced both mine and my dad's with GMB. Mechanic recommend it too. So far so good.
I had my timing belt done by not a Volvo specialist specifically, but a “European brand” mechanic. They used an Aisin pump / Gates belt kit and life is good.
There’s a really good kit that come with gates timing belt, tensioner, idler, Aisin water pump, Toyota cam and crank seals and a serpentine belt for $350 I used it and everything has worked perfectly
You should be fine with the Aisin. They were the OE manufacturer for a lot of makes.
I have their water pump on my Rx7, it's been A-Okay for over 3 years.
Excellent time to learn to do it yourself and buy a $65 water pump and timing belt kit. Dirty cheap for the miata. Just find a kit with a GMB water pump and a name brand belt.
I've used GMB some 10+ years ago. They were made in Japan and came with a lifetime warranty.
I put in a GMB in my '02 two years ago, and it's leaking already.
