Default Question About Slim Fan Sizes...

Im planning on running AC on my car and need to replace both the condensor and radiator fan with slim counterparts.

Can I get away with both 10" fans on each side or would it be best to run one 12" on radiator and one 10" on the condensor.

Setup:
First Gen B16 in 96 HX Coupe.
One Fab AC Manifold
GT32 turbo
full 3" 4 bolt down pipe.

Thanks In Advance...

Do this. Its much better and leaves so much room for your turbo.


Those are two 12" slim fans.

Two 12" fans are the largest fans that will fit onto the integra full size radiators. You can mount one as a pusher and the other as a puller. I have a few for sale if youre interested.

this is probally a really ignorant question, but why do slim fans cost so much?

is it becuase they really are that slim? (how slim are they?)

I'd say about an inch in depth...but i don't have a ruller with me . Remember they also push about 2x as much CFM as your stock radiator fan! for $60 shipped it isn't expensive I think
