buy a new fp
you can usually find cheap deals on new walbro fuel pumps....I'd suggest shopping around and checking out the vendors.
In my opinion, it's probably not worth saving $15-25 to buy a used one when a new one is not that much more and you get the peace of mind buying a new part that will be a part of your fuel delivery system.
GL getting all your parts! I just went through the whole process for my similar upgrade...I went with a vf39 so it was easier for me to source one for a decent price. hopefully you're able to come across some good deals!
...just for reference, here's a FP for $75

just in case you were wondering, if you were to get say an 18g you won't need to upgrade ur injectors your stock injectors would be more then fine. Fuel pumps are cheap so it's better just to buy it new. As for the vf43 and sti top mount craigslist always has a lot of stuff or nasioc.

I was goin to go 18G but wanted something more OEM. most likely, I wont be keeping my car for too long so I dont want to do anything too crazy.
