i got a 1993 r32 gts-t

since i've had the car i had never heard the radiator fan kick in & it does not operate when the a/c is turned on...

i have checked all wiring/fuses/relays/connectors/sensors etc

all i need to know is:

does your radiator fan come on when your engine reaches normal operating temp?? approx 96 degrees celcuis.

i've been informed that the fan is NOT supposed to operate when a/c is turned on. and im thinking my car never reaches 96 degrees for the temp switch to bring the fan on.

can some1 please confirm this.

thanks

- Ross.

if by "radiator fan" you mean the electric fan in front of the radiator, and not the engine-driven fan behind the radiator, then all is ok and normal

that fan is an overheat fan, designed to come on about 100-110deg or so and does not come on even with a hard drive with the A/C on..

personally i wired a switch in my dash and cut the wire to the fan, so that i can turn it on whenever i want eg on a hot day in traffic :laugh:

the fan is activated by a thermoswitch at the bottom of your radiator. turns on at 90degs. The fan on my 32gtr never turned on. Even when i tried diagnosing it using the manual. i just wired it up so whenever the the ignition is on the fan turns on. living in the NT, i think the car deserves to stay cool.....

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
