what fans to use with fluidyne rad.
ever since i installeded my fluidyne I lost the ac fan. and i noticed that when I lost the fan my ac is not as cold as it was. Is there a way to get another fan like a fal or some sort to get my ac fan back. thanks
Luis oh this is for a 95 gsr

I think Fluidyne sells a brand that you can attach to the rad itself, but in my case, I just used some welding equipment, welded some brackets aand put my stock fan on the rad. Never had air that cold in my life, took about 5 minutes to make the brackets, and for never welding, it looks like Fluidyne did it, I cant take some pics if you want..
I don't know how well these pics turned out, so lets hope it helps..
^ you can see the weld spots where I mounted the old AC fan.. I made a little clip thats the shape of an L to hold the bottom on aswell..
^ both fans running, also shows you that they fit perfetly along the back of the rad..

Yeah you won't get cold air w/o the fan. When we were at NOPI last year (my car and my friend's Civic both inside the speedway), somehow the screw came out of the A/C fan on my friend's Civic, so he had no cold air. I busted out my handy tap and die set and re-tapped the hole in the fan blades so that I could use a screw I had laying around in my toolbox, and voila! he had cold air once again.

If you have a newer teg you never have had very cold air. I have a '98 GSR and have to say it is the worst A/C I have had. BeCool also makes some adjustable fan brackets that will work, no welding required.

Why is that? My 94 uses R134a and the A/C is pretty darn cold, 140K miles on the car and engine as well. Are newer ones less effective?

i went to the local auto supply store and they don't sell any uni brackets I might just buy the fluidyne fan with the brackets what you guys think and where would be a good place to buy.
