ok ok, so i found a N42 thats looking good so far, its un touched but clean. so first off, where can you get a block off plate for the air regulator? or am i just gonna have to make my own.

SECOND: i want to go electric fan on the radiator so should i get this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=270132746975

OR

would one of these be suficient enough.... even though its a bit small http://classifieds.hybridz.org/showp...ct=4631&cat=17 (but theres 2 adds for this so he might be selling 2 so if i could gt both im sure it would even out that one huh?)

THIRD!!!! i found OEM nissan brake pads in my S30's cargo doo dads..... but the box they were in was a little moist and fallin apart ish, soooo do you think the pads are any good since i think im going to be needed a changing on them?

i think thats about it for my questions. thanks ya'll

#1... Just make your own.

#2... Get a 16" fan that will flow 2000+ cfm (usually $30 - $80)

#3... If the pads are falling apart, you prolly shouldn't use them.

The brake pads should still be good. Water will not destroy them, chemicals can. Check them out, if it doesn't look like they have been hit with any type chemicals, they should be all right to use. Good Luck with picking out which fan you want. Both will work, just pick out the one you like and go for it. Good Luck again, Rich.

The list goes on...


Electric fans mount w/ ziptie style fasteners:



I remember talking w/ SHADY during MSA weekend about his... those zipties can damage the radiator fins, so he fab'd mounting brackets.

i think id survive if 4 out of my thousand fins goa little bent

and ebay? i expected better from you. lol but i will look at them and hope they are trust worthy

EDIT: so i looked at them, both seem to come with fasteners of some sort but not ziptie from what i could tell, however the one is 24 dollars and the other is 70 dollars, the 24 dollar one is just a fan thats pretty thin looking and is 2500cfm

the other fan has an electronic thermo switch on it apparently already, looks nicer, and flows 300cfm

sooo should i spend teh extra 45 or should i not?

NismoPick

uh... didn't you post this one from ebay?

llol, well it was from a guy on hybridz selling it on ebay, its different than an ebay company. lol and re-read casue i edited that post

and that spal site is a bit over priced IMO summit racing had a few fans better and cheaper

Hey snw, I went to the junk yard and got a twin fan set up from an NX2000, for $35 w/an exchange warranty if its dead when I put it in. It has two prongs / studs in the bottom and two bolt brackets op top. Easy to fab the brackets to hold it in place. plus its quite a bit less then 4" deep. I plan to set it up so that one fan is on with a temp sensor and the other I can manually turn on when its needed, like "stuck in traffic" situations. Maybe worth a try. I would rather trust an older OEM part for quality over a new fan from ebay...

junkyards in my area, RIP YOUR *** OFF!!!! i paid (dont ask why i feel stupid) 45 dollars (after hagling) for a zx alternator when i was going to use the original 260 motor to get rid of the external regulator and that was after i gave them my original alternator.... i feel so taken advantage of. but yeah i already bought one nismo posted, so if it fails me, im makin him re-inbers me.

air reg. n42. huh, un bolt it. no holes go in to the intake. unless your talking aboot the egr then its not worth buying...i got my electric fan from a j30 and 300zx. look there
