i always wonder about most people that run turbo "where is their raditor fan?" more clearance in the engine bay:flame on


engine bay(slow and dirty) but what is missing?


huh?


getting some where


there it is

-real easy install
-had to reverse the + and - on the wiring on the fan and stock plug to have the fan still blow the same direction as the stock fan when mounting in front of the raditor
-isn't even a spal high performance fan(pep boys)

 

good deal...
... nice work...but on a turbo..wouldn't the intercooler go there?

 

nice writeup! im gonna do the same thing because the stock fans are soo damn big! how did you secure the fan to the radiator? zip ties?

 

some fans also reccomend you flip the blade over when you change the direction that it spins because it is designed for air to move over it in one direction.

 

-the fan is flush against the rad surport and the 4th picture meatl thingy.
-the fan is attach with this zip like thing that is held on by tabs, from the second picture you can see the plastic tabs with a cushion behind it, it pervents the fan from damaging the raditor from the crazy driven...
-i got the 92-95 raditor also but just didn't fill like hacking the front cross member, just save up and get a front cross member made to fit the half size raditor( i want a z-10)

 

I did the same thing on my car. I put one on just like that a few months back. I put it in the same spot you have it....except mines in between my IC and my radiator. It sucks like crazy though the IC and helps cool down my intake temp too. That thing is loud as hell though....sounds like a jet.

That is a nice clean install!! I like to see good work- too many hackers in JDM-land!

on me i never thought of doing that. put alwell i'll do it later when i put the half size rad and redo the wiring, as for the direction of the way the fan blows i switch the + and the - soo it will still flow the same way as the stock fan did.

mine didn't seem that loud compared to my stock one but i guess my stock fan was getting old, and i want a ic too also the rest of the turbo set up, you got to send me pictures on your set up, my front bumper is the jdm one soo there is no bumper surport too i guess i got more room to play with.
