Z1 motorsports fan for the 300zx..

http://www.z1motorsports.com/P...n.asp

Flows 3100 CFM.. and is pretty slim looking. I'd rather have just one large fan than 2 smalls.. but I'm wondering how efficient it would be for an RB26DETT with a stock radiator?

Any input? Does anyone here run a single fan on their RB?

might be a tight squeeze unless you are using mckinney mounts. as fr efficency 3100CFM is more than what i would consider adequate but still not as much airflow as 2 2500ish cfm fans. why dont you want to run 2 fans?

Ya I'm using MK mounts.

The reason I want one fan is because it looks clean, and because the area it covers is likely larger than what two small fans would cover. From what it looks like at least...

What fans are you using Kamin?

You may be able to get it to fit on towards the passenger side of the radiator. I know with the Koyo 3.25" would not work as a puller but you may be able to get it to work with the stock radiator.

If you are keeping the 240 radiator, the flex-a-lite dual fans can be made to fit really well. I think the model was 220. Anyway those things were awsome and fit really nicely. If it wasn't for the Koyo I would still be using them.

i'm using the r33 radiator and the FAL 220s as pullers on my car... i had to remove the aluminum shield on the driverside fan cause it was rubbing on a pulley... managed to get a little room out of that

Back up your info. Have you used one before?

I'm using a stock radiator for my swap with an N1 WP.. I don't really want a thick radiator with the intercooler I'm using. If it doesn't work I'll upgrade.
