I have a 91 240sx ka24de and want to put an altima dual electric fan setup since my fan clutch went out. I was wondering what year altima fans would be the best to put on the car. I have access to 96 altima fans for less than $100. Will this work fine?

or a fan controller. I've got mine on order with HKS. The donor for the fans came from a 95 maxima hee hee hee

oh, please do note that the maxima's fans are too large to use without modification.

I got a 93 dual altima fan setup on my s13 (sohc). Just needs trimming on the sides and to the bolt-in holes. Fits like a charm.

Advice: use a relay to power the fan, or a switch, whatever works.

Temporarily hooked up to a hayden thermostat switch.

MAN THIS THING GETS YOUR ENGINE COLD!!!

I used to have to use the heater during stop & go traffic to keep from overheating (think it was more my coolant/water mix, but this makes a difference).

Put in an aluminum koyo radiator, dual electric fans, hoses, coolant flush -> first couple days I couldn't even get the car to warm up! So I had to use the cheapy hayden controller for now til I get me a good one.
