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.....

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
