unboxing Aisin TKT-021: is it REALY genuine Toyota for a fraction of the price?

In this video, I unboxed and Amazon purchased water pump and timing belt kit for Toyota 4.3/4.7 L UZ Engines to find out if all of the components are in fact genuine Toyota re-boxes.

It’s important to note that aisin “takes credit” for this entire package, so for all we knew buying it, it would include an Aisin pump, which is of course genuine Toyota, but what about the bearings, the tensioner, and the timing belt itself?

NTN Makes Toyotas tensioner

Mitsuboshi (Not to be confused with Mitsubishi) makes the belt

Koyo makes the bearings

That is what we should find

Fitted a Aisin made in China pump 21, 000 ago. No problems

Hey I got the same kit from Amazon but the bearings it came with is JTEKT.

AISIN is the OE manufacturer for Toyota or OEM, it is 25% owned by Toyota. There is no concern with kits being exactly what OEM puts in Toyota at the plant. The only concern is that it is not a kit made by somone else with AISIN label or a KNOCK OFF. so do be aware who you buy it from. Also when you get the kit, inspect it. There will be nothing with Toyota label, because that can only be put on Toyota contracted parts at the manufacturing plant or a Toyota dealership sourced .. at a much higher price, even though it IS the SAME part.

Does this kit work for 2002 Lexus gs300 2JZ???

How exactly do I buy those? Amazon is full of cheap fake parts

Guy buys knockoff parts on Amazon and believes they are real cause the box says so.

You said that you are a responsible Toyota dude though you bought non Toyota parts… Yo you said you are responsible “No you ain’t” 👀
