Just measured it, it's 134mm. OEM requirements is about 143mm.

Looks like might need the Dayco 115847 instead.

Fuarking.

well, FWIW that is the size that the GKtech adapter is designed for (134-143). I was going to say I have one for half price but looks like they are on sale for $19 atm anyway. 

However, taking into account the feedback above on aftermarket couplings (I've got no experience with them, but surprised if they don't work out of the box) and I saw something about the Dayco coupling fouling on the GKTech adapter...it might be best just to go OEM

After all, we know you are keeping this car for 20 years and continuing to say how you want to sell it and buy the new BMW electric hover m2 instead.

Thanks for the thought anyhow Duncan!

I will just return the fan clutch, I've already messaged the seller on eBay however no response.

Might just give it till about Tuesday and do an eBay return, then cry a little and order a brand new OEM unit.

Sitting in the garage. More than welcome to see if it fits, was working fine only removed to suit dry sump setup.

Might take you up on the offer on the fan hub fits.

Will do Google tonight, intensely lol.

If not 2x options, both equally costly.

1. New OEM hub

2. FFG shroud and 16" Spal fan.

Don't think so, part is 21U082-05U00 and they're f**king $800+ now !

It's "nearly" the same 21082-75T02

Wonder what the real difference is

Come get it and have a play. If it fits, great, if not return it or sell it for me. 🤣

Any chance you can measure the overall height from the hub to the top side of the fan?

I feel that they're nearly the same, perhaps different height (GT-R being probably shorter than the GTS-t one, however I'm running essentially a Koyo radiator for a GT-R).

Hmm mean from the top side of the fan blade to the base of the clutch, ie if you sat the fan flat on a surface, how high would be be overall.

100mm overall

95 for the height of the blades

I'll grab it, just measured mine and seems about the same height 98mm or so.

Considering the fan blade is identical and the water pump on either motor are the same it should be good.

I'm going to assume you want to get rid of the clutch and fan blade together?

I'm happy to purchase a fan blade if there's one surplus. Mine has started to get little stress cracks and could do with replacement. Just saying😉

Sounds like we a threesome in a non homosexual way.

Yeah clutch and fan together. Fan blades would be lucky to be 5000 kms old.

PM me your number bro, you can't receive PMs for some reason lol.

Thanks again @Piggaz, shit box now has a working fan clutch/hub/coupler

Weirdly enough the RB25 one is higher than the RB25, so this means the fan blade is now even closer to the radiator shroud!

I have a out 6mm before the blades kiss the top flat part of the shroud. Might trim off that flat part if it causes any issues.

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
