^^^^u'll be impressed until about at 100,000km u find the car gets boring to drive.......
that happened to me, the car needs a full service and i think it mainly has a lot to do with the intake, prob a lot of gunk on the inside of it........and its restricting my power.......i not sure how i'm going to sort that out, but i have to get a good mech to start with.........
and i think i should clean/replace my fuel filter.......talking bout that......ah going to do that now...... |

aye splat i ended up buying a pre fabricated one for 1500 dual core
this place in california (greens) brings down ones from japan
they just had to mod the fan brackets on the rad for the fans to fit , whole thing from pulling the hood to starting the car took about 1 hour
and i got a warranty for 6 months |

ah find one of my rad fans not comming on , what might be the problem ? is the one to the right
when it comes on on high speed for a few seconds and then comes off
it used to run all the time when the ac on on low speed and come on on the high speed for a few seconds
now it does not come on on the low speed at all when the ac on
i checked the connections and they look entact. could it be when i changed the rad and they were messing with the harness it might of broken the wire inside ? or might it be a relay bad ? when the rad had cracked and coolant sprayed all over the front of the engine bay it corroded the contacts on a relay ?
the ran relay box not far from the rad
is there a sensor near the condenser for the temp that may of become unplugged ?
i will not drive the car untill i get this sorted out on saturday
ah doh ever drive with out ac nah  |

ah doh ever drive with out ac nah  |
doh use ac without both fans it will damage yuh compressor. Learnt that from an ac guy. could be just the fan gone, they could jus change the motor i believe(if it made up like the B14 own, motor and blade seperate). One of the fans is directly related to the AC, and the other for the rad for cooling, but when one works the other works by default.
high speed operation is only for a short time if the temp spike. It doesn't indicate a problem, yuh low speed fan blown, come like yuh headlights when yuh low beam go yuh sill have high beam.
look for one saturday. changing the 2 will be up to u. not sure the price. |

well i passed by the auto eletrician right after i made that post , he knocked it with a pliers and it started working he said boss your fan gone
now i went by motorist and they said its 1493 for the motor alone
i just spend 1500 for a radiator
so i thinking it might be some coolant got in it from when the rad was leaking , sprayed it with some WD40 and i it working, went out tonight and it worked well
so i will monitor it but if it gives trouble i going and buy ah new one , dunno if i could get ah universal motor |

^^^^^^^my concern is if the problem will re surface and if the fans could be opend and serviced like how those old school auto electricians used to open up power window motors and service them , make back brushes and stuff
not like these now ah days take out and put back auto eletricans , yea it bad by one in the bamboo and i go put it on for ya  |
