You might say, why not get an electric fan instead. Well a couple reasons. I dont wish to deal with the electrical issues at this present time. And I was advised to use a belt driven fan for the type of aplication i will be using.

Anyway. My question is simple. I saw the following fans and spacer kits on the Flex-a-Lite website. I would just like to know if thw fan along with the spacer kit will fit on a CA18DET.

This Project 200sx hopes to be very interesting and I will keep you guys posted.

what's the problem, is your clutch fan broken? i don't think there would be much of an improvement over the stock fan. electric fans really aren't hard to wire up.

The Car is a 91' 200sx. and yest it comes with a CA18DET (they do exist) I myself havent figures it out but i think it's the UK import. They Are pretty common here in the Caribbean.

And Yes cdlong the clutch fan is broken and i know an electric fan isnt hard to wire but mechanic asked me to get one like the FAL. (i know it sounds strange) anyway. I just want to know before i buy it if it will fit the CA18DET That's all.

Another thing, I saw a 10 sec GTR fully modded out. This bitch was fast. and it to my surprise it retained it's stock clutch fan.

I guess I am trying to make a statement that an electric fan isnt absolutly necessary. :)


but its incredibly easier....or just get a new clutch fan...not that hard
