95 240sx s14 sr20 swap electric fan wiring?

I have been reading writups on installing electric fans for 2 hours and cant seem to figure this out. Do anyone have a simplified way to do the wiring so the fans will kick on as needed rather than constantly run?

If there is a good writup to follow on this topic please share, i cant find one.

Which hurts the motor. You can get a universal fan thermostat at AutoZone for about $20. Works great. Been running that on my s13 for about a year no problems with a Taurus fan.

Yup just discovered this on a general writup. You can buy the with fuses and relays already in the wiring which is great.

I'm talking about the engine. You want the engine to be at operating temperatures as early as possible. When cold there's a lot more friction.
