Electric Fan Conversion

Short Explanation

DO THIS MOD!!!

Of all the mods I've done to my NA Z, this one was had the most substantial power gains. The Z now has better response and more pull than at high RPM. The car can hit 6k without a problem. The noise of the fan clutch is gone, which is good for pinpointing engine noises/problems. There are now 8" of extra space to work at in front of the engine. Unbalanced fan clutches wear down water pumps, which won't happen with the electric fan. A replacement Fan Clutch will cost you $45. The fan clutch mechanism wears down, leading to a 100rpm loss per/yr or more, and though most aftermarket fan clutches have a lifetime warranty, you don't want to replace this part all the time. The electric fan will cost you $108.90. Two fan clutches and you'd already be there.

The electric fan will always give you maximum efficiency. At 1000K or 5000K it's always at its peak performance. The fan clutch doesn't do its job at low rpm, where you really need it, cause it can only spin as fast at the engine.

This modification is beneficial for both Turbos and NAs. Gains depend mostly upon the condition of the fan clutch. If your fan clutch is new, you gain the most. If the fan clutch is old, you gain less. Funny, if the fan clutch is good, it's bad for HP, and if it's bad, its good for HP. You can see it's the worst of both worlds, so get rid of it and go electric.
