25159, Fluidyne Radiator & Fal Fans bolt in? Posted by pn0ymahal, Jun-23-02 04:59 AM
does anyone have one of both of these with a turbo kit on there car? reason i ask is because i hear that the Fluidyne radiator is HUGE and i was also planning on changing the fans to Fal fans if they will bolt right up for us?... i have a hrc stage 2 with front mount if that matters...one of my friends with a gst 16g, and front mount changed his radiator to a Fluidyne and he said, dude i had to remove my fans for now it would not fit right... any feedbacks?

mike the fliudyne is almost 2 inches thick i think. the stock fans will not fit with our turbo kits, the flex a lit fans should fit, but they are almost 400 bucks, and the radiator is 400 bucks, the flex-a-lite fans are a direct bolt on from what i have seen. lates james

I want the FAL fans but the price is why I don't have them yet. The stock fans do fit w/ the fluidine in but there is NO more room. The FAL are a direct bolt to the stock GS-T radiator so they would bolt to a fluidine.

I have a fluidyne and the stock fans on right now. There is NO room and if the a/c fan didn't have the heat shield on it to cover the fan motor the down pipe heat would melt it. I have had it on for at least a year. I want the FAL fans but they are just to $$$. Sorry I dont have any pics cuz im lazy...

Armond has the Fluidyne with stock fans. Here is a pic. Hard to see the stock fans, but they are there.

fluidyne looks nice, but yah its hard to see the stock fans... we could use our stock rubber radiator hose with this fluidyne right?.. what kind of radiator hose is that on his car? also is that some custom intake setup which connects to the turbo? what the heck is that big think on the pipe?... the fluidyne i should order is for the 95-99 gst eclipse and all we got to do is modify the lower neck and drain plug right?

I just got a Fluidyne for our 1G and ordered a Spal fan from Buschur. The 9" is $85 and the 12" is $95. I'll be using the Spal for the primary fan. Then I got a small fan from Pep Boys as the secondary A/C fan. Any auto parts store should have those small electric fans, and they say that they work with factory wiring and harnesses. The Fluidyne just came in today, so once it's all installed we'll take pics and Jenni can post them if anyone would like to see the Spal and other fan. I will NOT overheat anymore! :)
