It's real hard to find the correct fan clutch for RB20 and 25. I went through this a little while ago, although I had bought Dayco clutches and there is no cross reference between that one and the Davies Craig 5265 (which is odd, but forget about that for a moment).

Basically, the brand new Dayco ones would lock up at waaaay too low a temperature and so make a lot of noise, use a lot of fuel and slow the car down. Horrible. I ended up using a secondhand original RB25 clutch. If I was to buy a brand new one, I would definitely get a genuine one next time.

There's a lot of useless twaddle in my thread about the radiator. Ignore it. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/418116-fan-clutch-shenanigans-any-clues/

Yeah genuine new Nissan clutches seem to be the only go. But at over $500 a pop, they are damn expensive.

Try Amayama; they are much more reasonably priced, if you can wait a week or so.

$201 is a much better price; add $30ish for delivery.

the one for $201 is from the UAE, 20-30 days delivery

from japan $435 with 10 day wait.

I should've just got the standard one from Nissan at the start I guess.

ill give Nissan a ring and see how much they are. I will pay the money to get rid of that shocking noise.

the davies craig clutch is louder than my other 1.


cheers for your input guys!

I have found that is the "worst case scenario" on delivery time; they generally arrive quite quickly.

When you email for a price including shipping; they will also revise the lead time.

Give them a go; if all you are worried about is the noise (rather than imminent engine damage through overheating); why not wait & save a couple of hundred?

I guess you have a point there.
so the link you posted to before was the correct part number?

Sorry mate; that one is actually the SR20 fan clutch.

Below is a link for the R33 RB25det fan clutch.

I would advise so you are 100% sure, that you go into the listings and confirm it for yourself.

This is the page I got to the fan price from; you can clearly see the make/model of the car, but check for yourself.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I should try the experiment you're talking about, the throttle switch is still there carried over from the R32 and it's still all wired up but after I did the whole intake manifold refurb and had to recalibrate the TPS I managed to somehow get the idle switch reporting activation at 0.22V, then when I adjusted it to 0.45V for idle it decided the engine was permanently no longer idling which caused some very weird behavior, closed loop idle was disabled so it would basically be at the whims of the cold start valve and whatever the base timing table was at. Then just unplugging/replugging the TPS with the ECU live caused it to relearn the idle TPS position and decide 0.45V was idle. Presumably there's nothing in the TPS that allows for the throttle switch to "recalibrate" like that, not easily at least.

      Duh... to answer my own silly question, it's actually described in the FSM... ...400 pages away at the end of the manual, for RB25DE/DET signal descriptions, it cites the TPSwitch signal action, is dependent on the TPSensor value ~ this tends to infer the builtin POT voltage signal is the primary, and the switches are fallback/secondary should the POT fail/TPSensor signal lost (and switch alone with no TPSensor signal allows for base idle speed setting).... makes sense... they (TPS units) used to fail/wear the POT with time, they're not exactly built to last ~ having the switch as a redundancy gets around this...(or, it's less likely both signals would be lost as they're on different power rails)... and of course wrt RB26DETT, you have to electrically disconnect the IACV solenoid from the harness, to defeat idle air control...

      Dose is unaware just how much fun 145-150kw would be in a 2.5L NC MX5. It would be one of the most fun things to drive to ever grace SAU.

      Same thought crossed my mind ~ depends on how one connotes 'stalling'...ie; gets a rough/stumbling idle as it get warm until it stalls... or... idles ok and simply falls-over when it gets to temp... ...you can test the whole circuit with a couple of resistors ...unplug coolant temp sensor, bridge terminals with a 2K7 resistor (ECU will do cold start), or with engine warm bridge with a 330R resistor (ECU will consider engine to be at normal operating temp)...it's a quick way to check wiring integrity/ECU response when you don't have a multimeter handy ...
