Which Fan, And Which Style?

[SlowWhite]

Just realized I have a few more things to buy before I can finish my car.

and Slim line FAns are one of them


I'm wondering:
-which ones to use
-how much CFM should I go with
-where should I buy them from
-Which Style (push or Pull?)


FYI - I don't have my A/C decrompressor anymore so I have a space between my FMIC and Radiator.

I've been battling a high temp problem for some time now. So I also need to get a lower thermostat. Any idea's there as well?

If you look on ebay you can get 2 10" fans for $75. Ryan has them on his galant and there really nice fans, and a good price. As for the thermostat try just about any dsm vendor, dsm motorsports I think sells lower temp ones. Also you are going to want to try just water with ither dish soap or water weter.

I'm in that boat as well, i need a slim line fan, my turbo is getting in the way... damn turbos...

i took out the ac so there is plenty of room for a fan in the front of the radiator, should i just go with the push one?

just about any aftermarket fan can be switched to push or blow, so putting them infront of the radiator is a really good idea, saves room for massive turbos.

You recommend 10" over 12" - also what CFM are they putting out?


I don't have access to Ebay, nor do I have a credit card. So I'll have to buy them from a local shop.


I'd like to put the Fan in Front of the Radiator so that when I have to work on my car, I'll have more room. But what I'm also wondering would it be better to do 2 fans one in front and one behind that way the Motor/turbo itself get's air over it to help cool?

probably better off with 2 in front of the radiator...

i'll look at a local checkers or something.. hopefully they are like dual speed or something...

You don't need any fans in your car unless you plan on sitting at idle for a while. I haven't had fans for a couple months now and have never overheated. Just keep moving ;) . Don't beat the shit out of the car and pull over and talk to your friends. Just keep driving down the freeway. BTW, I am going to be getting some.

so basicly what you are saying is you need one ;)
