he wants to know the internal size of the hose......

Hence take ID of S13 hose and vola!!!!! The hose doesnt change ID until it gets to the flange for the thermostat.

However if it was an SR S13 its a different story (hoses are in different places IIRC to CA / RB). But he didnt say.

EDIT: Im persuming CA because he didnt mention that he is changing radiators)

Just for the record I tried switching elec fans from the radiators outlet on my daily (dinosaur Subaru L RX-T) and it doesn't work very well . I thought that sensing the radaitors outlet temperature would work but all it really did was ensure that ALL the water in the cooling system got hot .

I changed over to sensing the engines water outlet temperature at the top hose and it works much better . The reason being that the fans get going as soon as the outlet temp is a little above normal and the radiator has the best chance of having a reserve of cool water for the engine should the thermostat decide to open - or open further .

Your call but I'd rather have the thermostat doing the temperature regulation than the fan relays temp switching device .

While I'm here people like to argue that fans running longer or even permanently make an engine run too cool . The way I see it its no different to running around in 10 deg conditions , the std thermostat will still keep the engine temperature adequate if everythings running properly .

Cheers A .

      Leaking Rear Subframe Bushing?

      Perfect, I'll get to it this winter then at the same time as I weld on my anti squat kit.

      R32 only blows hot air

      By SeanR32GtSt · Posted

      Alright so my 32 only has one temperature no matter what degree you set it to. I’ve tried disconnecting the servo motor arm and moving it either direction and got no change. I’ve fixed the leak in my AC and re charged it and with it on and clutch engaged it still blows hot even though the low pressure pipe going to the firewall is ice cold. Both heater core hoses are hot while running as well. Diagnostic code showed 24 for intake air temperature sensor. Anybody got any ideas?

      Not oem, just bin them.

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I said Garrett style. Not Garrett genuine. And something in the G30 550 range is what you want. Not those pokey little old fashioned T28 sized things. The intake ports in the head are small. There is little benefit in fattening up the runners and leaving ths actual ports small. Just run what you've got. And on the subject of Nistune vs Haltech etc..... You know you can control the transmission with decent standalone ECUs these days, right? No need to keep any of that old Nissan bullshit. Don't get me wrong - I use Nistune on my Neo. But it is a DET, so the number of bodges and workarounds I had to do to make it work in a chassis without ABS, TCS, etc, is quite small compared to the herniated arsehole you will have trying to make it work on a motor that doesn't have some of the things that the turbo ECU wants to see. Just easier to bite the bullet and go aftermarket outright.

      Hmm. Only when the f**king thing is actually working. Still can't find the leak. And that's with dye being put in the last 3 times!
