Man w/ CTSV & a Car Seat
|
WTF just happened to this thread? SR20s are not supposed to be driven pass 65mph? WTF are you smoking? So how come they never over heat in Germany where people would drive these fucking things over 120-130mph with no issue?
E-fans sucks on these cars period. My car would slowly creep up to 100 degrees with my AC on cruising. Changed the damn thing to the stock shroud and fan, car never got hotter than 85 degrees again DD. Drifted the shit out of it in hot ass Oki weather for 45 mins straight and thing never got over 90*. This same thing applies for RBs, I personally folks who have had overheating issues with E-fans, switched to stock fan and shroud and car never overheated again. This includes 800-1000whp RB26 guys I knew. Back to the OP, do you have an aftermarket water temp gauge for this thing? Would it be possible that the stock water temp sensor is bad or stock gauge going bad? |

This thread just got even more hilarious lol.
Do you guys have any idea if the stock shroud will fit on the mishimito radiator? I was going to order the fans and shrouds from mishimito but if yall are saying OEM is better I might as well give it a try first |

Most people ditch the setup to free up power and years ago it was hard to source the correct radiator shroud needed for it. This is no longer the case as you can pretty much get the OE SR shroud anywhere that sells 240sx parts now-a-days. From the looks of it, the Mishimoto radiator does have the tangs that the factory shroud bolts to, but you may have to do some trimming to make it fit good. I've been tossing up the idea of ditching my F-A-Ls for the GKTECH upgraded clutch fan and a factory shroud setup. However, I've read that it doesn't work on engines that are running aftermarket engine mounts because they raise the engine just enough to case interference issues with the shroud and slightly larger GKTECH fan blade.

When ever I got back to the states im gonna put the OEM Fan setup on my SR. I have the ISIS efans on it right now (they looked batter than what i had on there before) but they dont pull enough CFM during drifting.
Thats a good thought on the fan. I was gonna buy one of those. hopefully there will be some reviews out soon

That explains a lot of thing. I knew you were completely crazy, but i didnt think you were a crook.
You wrote some serious bullshit man. These engines can take a beating, not break a sweat and driving 90mph even in a hot weather is nothing like taking a beating @OP > search for Kingtal0n posts here. I am not joking, he really IS crazy. Like he abused LSD for years and years. And get your money back, if he built the car it cant work properly. |

Kingtal0n is obviously a certified mechanic. which means I'm not. OP here is what you need to do. Study up on how to work on cars. Then : Take EVERYTHING off that engine. Get it down to bare long block. Replace all the beat crappy old coolant hoses. Replace the thermostat Inspect the waterpump, probably needs replacing. his *new* waterpump was new from the junkyard most likely. inspect the Radiator, replace if needed. Install some ducting if necessary Re-install all parts Correctly, cleanly. Get a new air filter if needed. install OEM clutch fan + shroud if you can Invest in pusher fans infront of the radiator if you have a big intercooler. If you have a stock sidemount, I'd recommend just upgrade it, hot intake temps can cause overheating. Clean your turbo, try to get all the gunk out from the compressor as you can, it will help with induction and make the turbo work less. Clean your throttlebody, EGR etc Problems solved. |

Can somebody PLEASE ban this douche??? OP- even though it sucks for you, I hope you learned a valuable lesson. That dick is NOT your friend... Get rid of the 240 and buy a honda until you know a little bit more about cars. Sorry this happened to you.

No I don't think so at all- and I have never even suggested banning anyone from any of the forums I'm on ever. This is the absolute exception IMHO- His whole mission in life has been to soil this forum with complete & utter trash from the get-go... I don't think he has made an intelligent post even once. Now we find out that he does shady business to boot... Fuck that- get rid of him; or at least ban him from posting in Tech Talk.
Albeit- I am confident Zilvia would be a better place w/out him.

haters gonna hate. mark my words: kid installs big radiator without also adding an oil cooler. coolant stays cool but the oil overheats while he drives over the speed limit (which, by the way, is what happens when you go past 3000rpm in 5th). oil breaks down, bearings are toast.
I give it 6 months to live. also, how is giving somebody a car with fully complete OEM equipment being a "crook"? Especially since I told him it has full OEM equipment. Its not like I am hiding the fact its all OEM. LOL not to mention the price. He stole it from me. For the price it may as well have been a shell. I wont repeat it here because he bought it to turn a profit. so far in this thread all I see is people trying to get somebody who shouldnt be driving over the speed limit to drive over the speed limit. irresponsible? |

Does anybody that is giving "advice" in this thread actually own a redtop with a T-25 that they daily drive? If not, you have no business giving advice. period. I easily have 3x the experience with most of these engines than anybody in this thread. There is a REASON that there are barely any redtops left out there. Look around- do you see any? Show me some daily driven vehicles with redtops in the USA that you own. Post up. Ill match you swapped vehicle for swapped vehicle- you post I post. Guarantee you run out first. |

Sounds more like you didn't hook up the coolant lines to the turbo. And it's just oil cooled...

My redtop is in my sig. It's now painted gold. I have a spare redtop valve cover if you'd like to see.

Hmm kinda weird that I've driven my SR on multiple 400 mile trips and (probably 17 times) @ 70-80mph for 5 years as well as driving 5 hours to Mineral Wells TX with 3 other SR'd chassis and never had a cooling issue.....
Even in Louisiana to where it was 100+ in the summers I never had issues. Quote:
Either way the car wont fucking run you idiot. Even If if that did work how the fuck is the turbo even an over heating issue? It sounds like your saying the hot air the turbo produces is heating up the engine? Well guess what? There is this thing called an INTERCOOLER, Its like a radiator for the air that it cools the air before going in the engine. But even still the engine is gonna be hotter than the air entering the engine anyway.

^^Why are you guys even bothering at this point??? Arguing with idiots like him is a nowhere road... They will just drag you down to their level; then beat you with experience.
We all know this kid has no fucking clue what he is talking about... nor will he listen to reason. You are all wasting your time... Let this thread die.

back in 05 or 06 I was doing this. Its been 10 years and Ive only gotten better at it. Everytime I post now I am gonna post up a swap from my documented swaps I keep talkin about. I suggest anybody that has a rotten mouth with anything negative to say do the same, since you want to disregard my 10 years of swap experience for your internet talk. talk is cheap. |
