Best way to wire up existing elec fan for main use????

[BlackS14]

I did a search, but couldn't really find a solid way to wire up my existing elec fan to run so as to enable me to ditch that damn clutch fan assembly. Is there a relay or fuse I can tap into under the fuse box (ignition source prefferably so as to only come on when I turn the key)?? Or is the a more better suggested way of wiring it up?

Or should I go the route of wiring it up to some sort of switch for me to turn on and off when the time comes to do so??

Any insight??

here.. I'd say run a seperate relay and switch though.. I heard the fusebox on my old s14 caught on fire because of this.

Um. Do you mean the little fan for the a/c? That thing won't be powerful enough to make up for the clutch fan assembly not being there.

Will a fan from a nissan quest fit? it's electrical so it'll have to be hooked up ofcouse but just wondering if it's worth the hassle of trying to make it fit.

I ripped a fan out of a EG civic, and wired that up. Grounded it to the block, and ran power to my ignition. It's a metal fan, and it really BLOWS!!! (haha) Seriously though, I can feel the heat coming from under the car when I stand by the door. It's amazing how HARD this little thing BLOWS

Mine runs even after shut off.. have the relay wired to the battery. Thing is, dont sit in traffic with the A/C on.. ahaha... Running 13' Flex-a-lite Sblade.
