hey guys... just been looking at replacing my clutch fan because after doing my radiator upgrade.. i can no longer fit my fan shrowed.. bummerr ay..

anyways iv tryed searching and cant find much at all. whats the differance in the two types of thermos?

i know the AU has offset fans and looks to me like 6 blades. the EL EF has 8 blades?

duz one flow better then the other? or duz one fit better then the other?

whos dun it and whos got some pictures to show all of us!

ones i get some information im going to install and take heaps of pics on the way for you guys!

Cheers.

i had some EL ones... actually i still have them if you want some to fit up.

the problem is the r32 p/s line that sticks forward of the pump.. it hits hard up against the fan body.. pushing the fan into the radiator..

i got away with it by only using one fan until i modified the line.. which was as simple as undoing it and turning it around a little bit.

i had no real dramas with cooling either.. i cut the shroud up and it fit the r32 radiator perfectly..

pm me if you want the fans.. $30 and $15 postage eh?? good condition, with a bit of shroud modification.

Sure you can't trim the shroud to get by?

I know some people have shaved it well enough to get by without issue.

As for the fans - the thicker edge/plated onces in theory would have higher static pressure to push more air.

But totally depends on the CFM rating of the fan @ what RPM... so really impossible to say just via pictures

    • You see R34 GTRs listed for 200-300k are they really selling for these prices? Kinda seems like the same ones listed all the time. Even with R33 GTSTs looking at gumtree. You have an auto with a bitsa interior for 35k. Another one needs an engine rebuild and asking 24k. And then you have a stock in better than average condition for 45k. Nobody is ever going to pay these prices.
    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
