Slim Fan...

I have a mishimoto rad and the stock fan wont go back in there? So I was wondering what fan you guys are using to replace it? Thanks

STM sells an FAL slim fan kit. It fits great even with a large Garrett Turbo and a 4" intake. Here is the website

Best of luck!

i got a universal one that was 12" and flows 1200cfm for $50 search ebay. if you have a thicker then stock radiator already the difference between a $50 fan and a $150 will not be noticeable at all.

My car stays cool, but it tries to heat up in traffic. Thanks

Honestly this is the cheapest place I found SPAL fans, comes with mounting stuff too (at least mine did).. check out the part numbers before you purchase from somewhere else... comes pretty fast, you won't be disapointed.

On my stock rad. I think I'm running the 13" (?) 920 CFM fan... I still have my other stock fan..
Depending on the depth they have 1250-1700CFM fans.. I got the slimest fan they had.

I had a SPAL on my LS1 240sx with a Koyo and it some how made contact with my rad while driving down the road. Busted my rad and almost made my car overheat only 3 miles away from home. I picked up a mishimoto rad and go two smaller slim fans from pepboys $50 Each (hayden fans) they worked really well I dont remember model or CFM tho.
