[QUOTE="eyong, post: 3528308, member: 23540"] Hmmm .... Got me puzzled ... Hard to tell since I may not be THE expert either, nor the condition and mods of your car. So far, have not encountered many overheating problems from mildly tuned/boosted gtr's ... Btw, have you done a pressure test on your radiator to make sure if there were no leaks in the cooling system (simple, cheap - aka free)? Oil cooler is definately a good investment on RB's ... Upgrade oil pump after upgrading the radiator? Go for an oil cooler, if you think your oem oil pump is not sufficient, then go for the pump coz we all know Nismo, HKS, Jun or Tomei aren't cheap, and a real bitch to replace gtr pumps ... :listen: By the way, I have tested the oil cooler between the intercooler and rad/a/c condensor works really well especially on stationary, compared to many would mount it on the right bumper openings for running forced air. About the electric fan's ... There are many disputes about how good electrics are compared to the oem clutch types. I think so far, most of the electric type mods were done in cooler climates like the uk, and some in AU (without success). I would keep the clutch fan, and even engine gain from electric fans were very questionable. Bigger core as in frontal area is good ... But don't get it wrong with core thickness. I have tested with triple row, Greddy 3" think vs Greddy 2" dual-core and oem ... and unless you have a huge T88, T51 or GT40, GT45's etc ... the response is going to sucks big time ... Somehow 34, on oem turbo's @1 bar, and oem cooler seemed to have instantaneous response ... :rolleyes: Bigger is not always better ... :biggrin: [/QUOTE]
