Because you know how good the car COULD be.

But never will because of his stubbornness.

You're looking at it the wrong way. It's my stubborness that will make the car. You'll see...



I take into consideration a lot of the knowledge you guys provide, I just use it to go a different path.

You know the 333i block is actually stamped 3,5 , not 3,3 don't you?

No fukking Way!!!!! This is a great moment for a ROFLCOPTER or something of the sort.

Different should be replaced by wrong.

OP - You're holding onto this notion of e-fan cooling problems; who have you heard about who's had a SPAL and cooling issues, even those with M42 radiators and S50s? You've got independent fan control, significantly less drag on the engine which is ALWAYS a good thing (IIRC the mechanical fan is equivalent to about a 6hp drag, but don't quote me on that), plus you don't have to dick around with major suspension components and you don't have to fuck up your steering geometry and bump steer/toe steer into a wall at stock ride height. Sounds like all evidence points towards the e-fan being doing it right.

And that's not Jean, he's just got Jean's ultra-handsome mug in his avatar. Don't worry, I've almost made the same mistake. Can't wait to see the outcome of your build.

no fan can work too.

[Wh33lhop]

no fan can work too.

Don't go this route. I'm there right now with my M50 car, I somehow burned out my blower motor and AUX fan from using the AUX fan all the time and running the heater on full blast, and I'm on the lookout for a 16" SPAL.

^ yep, aux fan will fail sooner than usual if you use it on full speed at all times and they are LOUD, mine is on at 1/2 speed when I am sitting at red lights.
The later model aux fans have different blades and I believe are quiter as well.

Can't wait to replace it with my spal fan :)

[Pinepig]

Why does this always happen on this forum? All I wanted was answers not criticisms. You do your shit your way I'll do mine my way.

May I suggest you quit asking about how to do it " your way " and figure it out on your own then.

Folks here tell you how to make it work every time you post up and you don't listen, you would rather it look a certain way than have a safe and drivable car. Idiotic.

Screw all this fan business, like it was said before don't run one, I dont with my M30 and its never gone over half temp. :)

I'm sure that's a good idea in LA, where there is no traffic or abnormally high temperatures of any sort.

[george graves]

Yea. My M30 is fine - but the second I'm in trafic behind someone, I need that fan on pronto. (other wise it's off unless I'm at a really long light....I guess I really need to do that electrical switch thing hun...)

Obvious sarcasm in my post, I have a spal in the garage waiting for summer!
