Are you going to disclose all that to the buyer?

If not, that's a crappy thing to do, especially considering you can buy a pierburg WP is around $165 from warehouse33auto.com with the rennlist xtra 10% off

+1 on the flush plus any coolant suitable for the aluminum block. I think the spec is "phosphate free coolant". I've been using this for over 100K in my car.
+1 on finding a $165 Pierburg water pump.

+1. How will you feel when you find out that your next Boxster has been loaded up with cheap ass parts and the wrong fluids?
