If you do mount it as a pusher, you have to flip the fan blades and hook the wires up opposite so the motor turns to other way.


Good to know, Is 1 12" or 14" sufficient as a pusher on the opposite side?

One 12" or one 14" fan should be fine as a pusher fan. It might just run more often than the stock fan. If you still have A/C then you'll really want to consider a second fan. That's what Nissan does anyway. Non-A/C cars got one fan, A/C cars got two.

Yeah and the second fan only ever turns on when the AC is on.

spal and flexalite are 2 of the best brands out there but rather expensive, for a good fan setup your looking at 150-250.00 depending on if its single or double setup

All of the SERs i ever worked on had both fans come on at the same time no matter what and that's well over 30 of them.

I hate to say it but I have the same. The ebay fans work if you are poor or just cheap

It's a fan w/simple electronics and cheap...most of the more expensive fans probably use similar if not the same electronics and are also made in China. It's a fan, not an ECU. No reason to go expensive on something that you don't need to. Maybe if it was a full track car I'd go for something a little more high end if anything for the airflow.

Mine work w/out issues and they do their job.
