Been eyeballing it for 2 years, I fear they may move on from the product and discontinue it | | | | | 05-31-2013, 05:43 AM | #139 | | Moderator Join Date: Mar 2007 Location: Maryland Posts: 3,220 |

Here's some more recent shots as well as progress on the build: Got around to installing my SPAL fan and Zionsville shroud/tank. Took me a couple days to troubleshoot before diving in, but once I got an understanding of it, it went in with ease. Only been a day with it, so far so good:    Took the fan clutch out (ignore the worn belts  ):  Marked the shroud to drill holes:  Team Zip-tie FTW!   Tap into Green/white:  All mounted up:   After a quick bath:  Can't wait for Bimmerfest Saturday! | | | | | 07-19-2013, 04:02 AM | #142 | | Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2007 Location: Fl Posts: 1,353 |
I really enjoy watching this car evolve. Looks great as usual. __________________

Never could find the right wires to take a signal off of so that it kicks on from the factory temp sensor. | The green/white provides power to the relay to come on during start up. The auto on/off feeds of the temp switch on the side of the radiator. There's two temperature wires on the switch (low temp / high temp) that you splice into to tell the fan to come on during either or both of those temps. I recommend either high temp or both. I'll dig up a few threads I followed to gain some background on the wiring | | | | | 08-28-2013, 05:13 PM | #146 | | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: Rocky Hill, CT Posts: 1,065 |

I'll dig up a few threads I followed to gain some background on the wiring | That'd be awesome, I have searched in the past but hadn't dug anything up on how to wire an aftermarket fan into the factory on/off. I even used a multimeter to test the OEM fan plug for life at different temps, and didn't come up with anything useful. Having it always running with the ignition has worked for 4 years now, but it'd be nice to have it setup "right". __________________

I like the new look.
I skimmed your thread but did not see any info on the roll bar. Is it a bolt in or custom? __________________

Cool look a bit too much for my conservative approach but it stands out. | | | | | |
