like the topic title says : post pics of ur aftermarket radiator and or fan systems u got on ur prelude

Im looking into getting one due to the radiator motor taken a crap on my and seeing how much they charge for one at honda and most junk yards charge alot also its worth it to just upgrade, would like to know if u can use the mugen radiator cap on a fludyine radiator and also i see it comes with a fan and fan motor, someone told me the motor spins faster then the OEM one is this true.

I did a search and did not find good pics so post away please

 

I would if I had a digi cam. I have a 2" Civic C&R with a flex-a-lite 2000cfm puller in my 5th gen, and got It all brand new for around 250 for both. I will see if I can get pics this week.

 

Heres a pic of my slimline fan for my swap, if i had a lude id put 2 of those on it.

 

 

does that one fan work ok on that c&r.. i mean theres two of them right now on my car the radiator motors not working but the condensor fan motor works, i thought u would need 2 of them to keep it all cool under the hood

 

one fan is for the ac and the other is to keep your engine cool....see which one cools your engine and remove the other one for a cleaner look.

the passengers side fan motor does not work the drivers side works, but if u run ur ac with out both of them wouldent that be a bad thing?

 

yes it would be a bad thing.....if no fan comes on your car will overheat.....you needa check that out...im about to take out my condensor fan...for weight purposes and make it look cleaner

 

my condenser fan never worked. in ga and fl 1 fan has worked fine. even in traffic w/ac on.

i now have a civic radatior and advance auto fan. ill post pics in a min.

 

alirhgty...does anyone one know which fan is to cool the engine?

 

excuse the zip ties...i was late for dyno appt. that day

passenger side is the main one. driver side is the a/c one.

 

alirhty thanx...how much that radiator run you? and hows its weight compared to stock?

 

My C&R was $300 used. Weight difference is negligible.

 

it was a few pounds lighter. i got mine for 150 here: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=765559

it looks better in person

 

your engine bay is beautiful

 

So not to jack the thread but you can safely remove the condensor fan and you wont have to worry about overheating if you arnt running AC. The only time i do it on the hottest 100+ days in stop and go traffic. Other than that I never use it. So would I be ok?

 

i would believe that it would overheat....but it was mentioned that it would be fine....uplug it on a hot dayy...go for a ride with the ac on...if it overheats plug it back in...easy...

 

what about pics of a fludyine on a 5th gen any one got any, also which would be the best fludyine, koyo, C&R

 

We are running a Koyo this year on the Prelude - very high quality - It was purchased from Radiator.com. We will be posting pictures soon.

Awesome, which fan are you running with it?

 

I'm using some aluminum rad from a company in my city here. It's basically the same size as an oem one. I'm also using 2, 10" slim fans convereted to push fans and these are mounted on the other side of the a/c condensor. Ths gave me enough room for my turbo kit and it's not too bad with regards to cooling. The pics are big so I'll link them! haha

Chris, we are using a flex-a-lite 12 inch fan their number is 112. We are using it as a push fan.
There was no room left on the inside of the radiator. The car does not overheat at all.

ye thats a good fan i would use it. There are size restrictions.

 

i using an advance auto parts fan. one down from the biggest. i have it wired on the key, so i can have the fan on whenever i want.

ive driven this car in fl, and sat in daytona traffic during the tuner bash, didnt overheat one bit.
