    I had the hi flow water pump in my TD42
    when I did the cooling system up in Jan this year, I replaced it with a genuine Nissan one

    biggest problem I was having was, when the EGT's went over 450* (while towing) the water temp would sky rocket up past 110* (alarm goes off at 110*)

    since doing the complete cooling system it has not gotten hotter than 105* when the EGT's are up to 450
    and the temp drops back to 95*-ish when the EGTs drop back to 300*

    I had the thermostat replaced - was not quite right
    thermostat housing
    water pump - Mr Nissan original (water flow was no better with the "hi flow" water pump, but wanted to see the difference with OEM gear)
    Viscus fan hub - was cactii
    fan - was small cracks, so may as well while there to replace it
    all hoses - mine were getting soft
    all belts - they were looking old.......
    back flush, and pressure cleaned outside of Rad - was new Dec2013 - lots of dirt and crap in the outside of it
    re-filled with Mr Nissan coolant

    for once I am happy with the cooling system on my TD42
