Default Aisin and GMB water pumps=equal?

I'm going to be replacing a water pump soon, not in my LS though. Are GMB water pumps equal to OEM Aisin?

with the water pumps i think it is ok to just go with a no namer brand, but go with the oem timing belt, we never have had any problems yet with those pumps

Aisin water pump life = 150,000 - 250,000 miles.

American car and aftermarket water pump life = 75,000 - 150,000 miles.
