Default Low on cash but need new fuel pump...

I hope this is the right place to post.

I have a Honda Accord 93 LX and am in need of a new fuel pump, but I'm low on cash...

I found a bunch of pumps cheaper than at the dealer and autozone and I'm trying to avoid at all cost, spending over 100 bucks on the pump... but I will if necessary...

Does anyone have any opinions about the following cheaper pumps?
(Let me know if it doesn't fit for my car too or about its quality.. because I'm buying off sites that might not specialize in car parts like amazon.com)

Airtex E8335 Electric Fuel Pump
$39.99 off Amazon.com
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/com...au_pf_dp_chart

Walbro (GSS278 ACCORD) Fuel Pumps - 190 LPH
$82.00 with shipping
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listi...&condition=new

1986-1993 Honda Accord - Replacement Fuel Pump
$67.50 (around 80 with shipping)
http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/de...QQT314501.html

I'll buy a strainer from autozone separately, if I get any of these pumps. Let me know! Thanks!

No it's not. The new-member board is mostly for welcome & introduce yourself. I'll move this to general tech.

The only one I'd consider is the Walbro 190lph one. Walbro makes good pumps and that pump has a 255lph sister that is commonly used in racing. Never heard of the the first one and the third one is no-name.

I'll go along with that - my 89 Saab had a Walbro pump (from the factory) & I had to replace it. Still, one replacement in 220k miles wasn't bad.
