I have found here in Qld that two 10" fans are not enough when stuck in traffic. I am about to upgrade to a thicker radiator and twin 12's. The temperature gradually climbs with the fans unable to cool the water temperature.

It appears that CA120Y has a bigger radiator than the factory CA/SR radiator although I could be wrong.

My advice is to fit the largest diameter fans you can initially so don't need to pull everything apart again to redo it. The biggest you can comfortably fit are twin low profile 12's.


Hope this helps.

here yah go mang

Thanks for the help guys.. i think ill go with the twin 10" jobs.. has anyone got any pics that they can post up of there setup??

my brother rang me yesterday and said he got a 16 inch at supercheap for 80 bux

and prices went down to about 20 bux but hes not sure how small they were

think 60 for a 12 inch

Mildman,s right the SPAL fans are great, they have the best flow of any of the other fans avalible. I have two on mine and they work great.

i got two davies craig 10inches on the back sucking threw with a simple relay running to a switch in the cabin (thermo's get power on acc then i can choose if i want them on manually) so i dont leave them on... i also have a pritty phat intercooler in front of my brand new cored CA rad and it does'nt go over 80 degree's

12" low profile is what I'm planning to buy. SPAL are the best, but expensive $200 or so.

i would say a pair of 10inch thermo's would be more than adequate, and fit nicely.

Im still organising the little bits and pieces for the CA converion and i am wondering what size/how many thermo fans i should run on a S13 radiator.. opics and ideas would be great guys..
