I did it before on my 99 sentra.

1, drain coolant.
2, jack up the car, remove RF wheel, remove the cover. now you see the flywheel.
3, remove the belts.
4, support the engine from below with a jack. from the top, remove the engine mount on right and any thing that in your way.
5, raise the engine about 2 inches with the jack. Now you can remove the water pump. there is one bolt longer than others. remember the position of that one.
6, clean the surface really well. put on the sealant and mount the new water pump.
7, reverse the process and add new coolant.
