Hey Guys,

seeing as my cars in peice's and waiting for parts anyways im dropping my radiator off to get a fan shroud made up so suit 14" spal thermofans on the mishimoto radiator and wondered if anyone else is keen for 1.

i'll get prices tomorrow and see if they're keen to make a few of them aswell if need be.

(it'll get measured up tomorrow but they're pretty busy atm so might not have pic's to show for a while)

cheers, Theo.

spal's are nice and thin so should be right............ what did you use ?

Davies Craig; they're about 80mm deep +15mm for the shroud.

My set up literally cannot be any thicker; otherwise it will not fit down the back of the rad. I actually had to remove one of the 5mm spacers in the back of the fan, as it wouldn't go in.

You should have another 15mm to work with, as my rad is thicker, and sit slightly further back.

I'm interested Theo.

Depends on price of course.

GTM do one, but no chance considering price + shipping

Why?

You have twin thermos....? And they work very well.

If it's too expensive I'll just use the twin 12s, or mod the shroud I've got to fit 14s.

What is the issue with your 2x12" fan setup, Ryan?

I thought you were saying it held 88deg in 44deg ambient the other day?

Would have thought you'd be pretty pleased with that.

Yes, but larger fans (thus larger holes) mean it is easier for the air to flow through the radiator and out of the shroud when the fans are not on (I have not uprev'd yet remember) and also, larger fans with more efficiently designed (and numerous) blades with draw much more air through in less time than the stockies.

I haven't got them in yet - those temps were with the clutch fan.

Just keeping my options open in case I need to go to 14"s

here is a teaser pic of the radiator fan shroud......... ballpark price is under $200 but i'll see what it costs me in the end and then work out how many people would like one and if he'll do us a deal.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/

      Yeah, I guess its pretty easy to get to if this doesn't work. Just wait till next oil change and pull it out. I am going to have to do the oil pan gasket soon and thought I'd just replace it while I was there.  Thanks

      All that matters is you're safe and you were able to type that post. Hopefully heaps of parts you can recover for the next shell.
