I’m piecing up my coolant system to get the car ready for track day. I have received my S13 SR Mishimoto radiator and tried to test fit the Altima (1998) fans that I got from the scrapyard.
I knew from the research I did that some trimming was required to make it fit. However, I did not expect the fan blades themselves to be sticking out over an inch on each sides. Is this how everyone have them sitting? That’s not ideal for forcing flow through the rad. Thankfully I had also brought the plastic shroud sliders from the Altima as well. I should be able to plastic weld them to the backside of the shrouds on each ends to cover the gap. Anyone else done this? Or did you just let it be?
