ill make a write up on it.. its more time consuming then u think.. umm for making it go fast i've always used a smalled or larger watt fuse, or if you dont want the bumper lights u just want ur corners to blick fast u simply take the wire'ing from ur blinker, un-pin it then re pin it into ur corner bulbs then you bumper lights will no longer blink or light up but my buddy has it like that w/ LED's it looks pretty cool ill make a write up..ill post tomarrow

I would say Looking at the bottom of his car and his user name. He more than likly has a Lsvtec. If so i can see why he would have relocated the fan on the other side and im sure it now spins the opposite way. Just my 2Cents tho.

REgardless of the fact, it would still impede air flow at speed no matter what direction it spun because the air still has to "make it past something". Also, after seeing this I went out and studied my rad. fan and saw that the design of the blades was inteded for the blades to "pull" the air and no "push". That fan cannot "push" the air through the radiator at the same rate that it can "pull" it.
Also, run a radiator fan without it in the car and feel for youself how much air flows... it's not a whole lot and you will be able to understand what I'm talking about. With the fan on that side of the radiator it is IMPEDING air flow at any speed over 40mph... Hell probably anything over 30 mph.
Now since he only has one fan in the front instead of 2 (2nd for A/C) I don't see it being much of a problem, but as I look at the picture that fan almost give the car a look of being "bucktoothed".
edit: btw, the bumper lights look great!!!

HOW THE **** ARE YOUR CORNERS SO BRIGHT AND ORANGE!!
Seriously, Ive got clear corners right now and hate the look my bulbs are throwing, its like a **** dull white. I wanna paint my corners amber with the stain glass paint, but what type of bulb do you have to use (wattage/color/make) to make it that bright
Flat black rattle can

The bumper lights are alright, I prefer stock. My question is - does your car eat tires? Your camber is wwaaaayyyy off....... </TD></TR></TABLE>
i just lowered it and drove it twice, yes the alignment and camber are off lol , if i let go of the wheel it cranks hard to the right.. gettin it fix

being honest i have no idea.. i went to wal-mart grabed some bulbs.. if it helps the carboard surrounding the bulbs was green.. i think there were some J&E or somin i'll check into it, i had these in my clears before i painted them and they wernt as brite as they are now.. i like'em i can like drive down my street with my parking lights

I'm sure it doesn't hurt much but it DEFINITELY does NOT keep things cooler then by being on the other side.
I know this is honda-tech and not Practical Physics 101 but seriously.
Get this, the fan can only move so much air. The blades are intended to "pull" (x) amount of air because of the blade design but if you reverse the rotation then they can only push (x-y) amount of air because of the blades where not designed to push. They "push" is not as effective as the "pull".
Having the fan on the other side of the radiator pushing the air through the front is BETTER then having NO FAN AT ALL but it will ONLY be effective at IDLE and STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. Once you are at speed it WILL IMPEDE AIR FLOW!
This is SIMPLE PHYSICS. To say that this will keep things cooler is MIND BOGGLING.
Let me put it this way, if your in stop and go traffic with no fan and your car is getting hot then this is a good idea. If you are at freeway speed or racetrack speed and your worried about things getting hot, THIS IS A BAD IDEA.
Please, just tell me that you understand.... I'm not saying that puting the fan there is ridiculous I just want you to know that it doesn't "help"... if it did, the honda engineers would have done it from the get go.

I understand what youre saying and it makes sense. But really, if the cars not overheating then theres no damage being done. Also most cars Dont need the fan for when there moving. I know that when you cut out youre bumper like that the air flows alot better. Hell mine runs colder just from that.
I would say if hes not making a thread about his car overheating then i wouldn't be concerned. There are alot of people on honda tech that have it like that. Most people on honda tech dont kow whit about cars, and if i felt he didn't i would be with you on this. But its apparent he has some knowledge. otherwise he wouldn't have rewired his Lights to stay on. like that. I noticed tho alot of people have no idea what he did.
All im saying is maybe the dude Doesn't have the cash to get a FAL fan. If its gonna be temporary i dont see any problem with it. Sorry to maybe come off as a dick, but you asked why he had the fan there. I didn't want this dudes thread getting jacked anymore so i went ahead and answerd everything i could think of at the time. I didn't mean to start a fight or call you out in anyway.

I like the lights like that. I have them wired like that on my car.
Not too difficut. I just went and bought some dual fillament bulb sockets from autozone and fit them into my bumper lights. Then I wired up the lights like normal. with the regular filament as the constant/marker light .( i used wire T-taps into the constant corner lamps power wire) Then wired the turn signal wire to the brighter filament. and ground to it's ground. That's all it took.
I think the socket was 1157 or 1156 I can't remember off the top of my head
