Waterpump is probibly gone. How long since it was replaced? Be carefull with the 3vze cooling system, you do not want to overheat a 3vze

Well, usually when you do a waterpump, you will replace the timing belt and tensioner while you're in there. Its tough to get too so its cheaper in the long run..

Using only toyota parts... 250ish + labor? Toyota prices are higher up here in canada so....
