Since it is approaching that time of year when it starts to warm up, we inevitably start getting the "what radiator and fan should I buy" threads. To satiate the need for information and to give users a guide to point them in the right direction, several 240sx enthusiasts including myself conducted a comparison of many of popular radiator and fan combinations for use in a 240sx. The test is referred to as the Sr20det radiator and fan test, but the information is valid for KA powered cars as well. This test was conducted over three years ago, but the information is still very relevant and useful to the 240sx enthusiast. I have posted the link in various threads in response to various questions, but I wanted to start a thread dedicated to this test for ease of reference since I have never done so.
The test is self explanatory and the methodology is laid out on the site. As this question comes up alot, we have no intention of testing other fans or radiators, as it just is not feasable due to various reasons.
If anyone has questions regarding the test or needs help please feel free to contact me. Enjoy!
