i just may show up anyway

 

are you sure this time that ur going??

 

hey smokie whats up? you going to brave the streets and roll?

 

did someone page Jlongie?

 

No he's the last guy we need to come he'd probably try to drag against every car that he could.

 

Truthfully, it has more cooling issues than my rotary ever had... but I had some seriously audiable knocking on the track after coolant hit 230+ and it still runs like a champ...

I would never have been able to do that with a rotary, and still drive it home...

I think the reason is that the fan is a POS, and was originally wired backwards... to push instead of pull, and the fact that the radiator isn't boxed in, and I don't have a belly pan... I think any 1-2 of those will solve it, since on a cool night or with enough air moving through it bearly moves off 190-200 but when is stop and go or road racing there's too much heat and not enough air movement...

I'm putting in a Volvo fan this weekend to effectively doubble the CFM's through the rad. That should solve the stop and go problem...

 

if i come im comming in the honda (dont want to do it ) but i may show up if i dont you guys know why

just to support.........but if im not there i will be at the next one im getting my car smog next week and for those that have my cell it will be back on this week no later than next week

 

sounds good, i believe that with the cooling issue..what fan do you have in there? the fd stock fans? what track were you at? i would think that the fd fans would work perfectly..

:AA:

 

I might show up, I've been meaning to visit my friend that got a job there.

 

It's the Hinson Fan...

The Fan Is a POS and because there is no shrouding it doubt it works as efficiently as a 2500 CFM fan... could with proper shrouding... either way the volvo fan is supposed to move 3600 cfm's + ....

The Dual Fans for the FD are too thick, and due to the "Dual" nature have fitment issues....

 

I wont be able to make it out tomorrow. Maybe the next one.

 

Are you guys planning for Friday, September 21st so that those of us in town for Sevenstock 10 can attend?

 

That doesn't sound like a bad idea. I think some other people will be going to K1 in Irvine though.

 

im down... too bad u cant come out red s5 fc3s, never got to check out your ride...

 

yeah red s5 fc3s hope to see you at the next one. As for the sevenstock bit yeah i was thinking about setting something up to go with the event so we'll see what comes up by then ill post what i come up with and ill be open to ideas from other members too.

 

ill prolly swing by before i go dj since the club i dj @ on friday is in garden grove
how convenient ^^

 

Yeah man, like I said, that fan SUCKS!!! I had the same issue when I ran that fan at WSIR. After putting the Taurus fan on, I have no more overheating issues, well, as far as coolant temp goes. For oil, I'll probably just use a stock FD oil cooler, an oil filter pedestal adapter, and run custom lines for a cheap, but efficient oil cooler!

 

So does that mean we get hookups at the club?



I should be able to meet everyone at the next meet. BTW a buddy of mine left his fender roller and heat gun at my house. If anyone needs a rolling or pulling, let me know. I don't know how long I'll have the equitment though... and I'm no expert at pulling, the rolling is easy. PM me if you need some work done.

 

I'll be showing up too Chinkster wheres my coolant level sensor????

 

Ok ill see you guys tonight

 

I'll be there

 

do i need to wash my car in order to come cause i really dont feel like it....
