        That doesn't look like an e30 fan.

              I hear APC makes a replacement fan that has neon glow sticks on the end, you should pick one of those up.

                The thing that goes wrong with these fans is that the clutch goes out. Is that your problem? Or did you get a cat caught in it and shear all the blades off?

                If it's the clutch, buy a used one, if it's the blades, get another cat.

                        Stock fan for your car is 420mm, or 16.54 inches.
                        I prefer BMA, Eurasian, or Importec for ordering parts online.

                            Yes, why order any other than stock... Unless you're converting to a sick electric fan
