Nevermind got the car going. Thanks though!

I need to get down to the lab and get a set of mounts from Forrest. Did he still have a decent supply left? He had quite a few sets the last time i was there.

My car NEVER overheated(s). I can even drive with the fans disconnected and not begin to overheat.
Thanks for the reply. Well i havent changed anything and now the car only shows it over heating when i turn the car off and wait 5mins then turn it on the needle will be over the H and down to middle when i turn the car on.

Also now when the ac is on and im driven for a while the ac doesnt blow as cold and all the speeds are the same it just trinkles out. Ill turn off the ac for 5mins or pull over and let the car idle for a few mins then the ac works again.

Im runing water wetter and useing a 1jz water temp sensor. I think its the sensor not reading right being its a 1jz sensor in a s14 chasey

I had a similar problem with my KA a few years ago. I live in Texas, so it's not uncommon to to have temps above 100-110*F (37-43*C). My car would start to run hot, and the AC would start to get warmer. The problem was that my radiator was getting so hot that it wasn't allowing my AC condenser to cool down enough. I added a fan on my AC condenser, and put in a Koyo radiator, and the problem was fixed. Good luck, no AC really sucks in the summer time.

What size tires do you run in the rear? Do you feel that you get good traction in the s14?

315/35/17 with the s15 3.69 works well, nto5 hold good, but the 3rd race it did spin all of 2nd but very controlled, most of the time they hold up to red line every gear.

Maximum Fan CFM:4,000 cfm
Fan Quantityual
Fan Diameter (in):12.000 in.

Alot of the supra/mr2 guys use the Greddy bcc/bcd/fcd/etc lol over the HKS one. I've been looking for a Greddy one myself, currently stuck at 14psi. So I'm considering using this:

DISCONTINUED BUT FEAR NOT WE HAVE A BETTER SOLUTION! - Replacement for GReddy BCC

The front frame needed to be cutout by an inch and a half but it's possible. The only thing is that the temp rises a little at idle only when the A/C is on..sigh....
FYI: you will need to trim the TT blade in order to clear the shroud.

Here is my cooling setup:
-7M shroud
-7M auxiliary fans
-TT fan blade
-TT clutch
-Koyo Radiator
