Mine are fairly similar. Very powerful for so little money
Now I've stopped them running whilst travelling there's no heating issues. It was just the fact they blew air the wrong way as I'd asked for

Blades are curved so it won't really work. They're only on when stationary or moving slow. So itll be fine

Running curved fans backwards produces less efficient flow but will still work.Blades are curved so it won't really work. They're only on when stationary or moving slow. So itll be fine

Fait enough. Tbf I did a test a week ago. Blustering hit day. At least 6cm bonnet lift. Motorway speeds. 120c oil. Bumped the fan on and it dropped 10c in the first min odd. I need an oil coolerI'll stick to running them sub 10mph as they are
Rather have 100% flow at low speed than 30% flow all the time

Oh yeah... Beat the **** out of a Honda s2000. He told me he just can't use the power on he roads... When he flashed me to pull over. So yeah a micra beat you... Is it me, or saying you just can't put the power down in a modern and better handling car... Or does it mean I can just drive my car better?

http://www.hotrod.com/feature_stories/1310_engine_oil_temperature/
combustion creates water. if the engine & oil doesn't exceed waters boiling point of 100C, then it'll mix with sulphur into acidic deposits (tis why I don't like stopping still-cold engines).
a daily & track car should run least 105C to reduce deposits & water vapour.
normal mineral oil withstands upto 120C but starts to degrade after 135C. ppl normally maintain 110-126C.
fully synth can withstand 150C

A539's are old technology, S-drives are the new tech I thinkI've hear they are decent tyres, pretty good
Try yokohama A539 too, not too badly priced and last well, and grippy
I run uniroyal rainsport 2 as my road tyre chris and I'm happy with them, done a hillclimb on them too

We did some testing on tyres at Donington with Linglung or summat like that, Uniroyal rainsport 3's, T1Rs, Bridgestone S02's, R888's. Got a full days worth of data to assemble, could post it up once done
The uniroyal is a well gripping tyre, didnt quite get to see it in the wet. But heard good reviews

So.... Shot oil seal on the go box... Lost 2 litres of oil in no time. Had to move someone's house... So had to fix extra fast. Struggled to find it oil at last minute 85w/140 ls and oil seal was even worse.
another issue... Turbs Mani has a 2 and a half inch crack in it which appeared in the space of a couple of days... Started by manhandling when changing clutch... Something to note for the future. So yea very close to a very large accident waiting to happen... Turbo flying round the bay. Installed front lower strut brace. Changed lower arm over.
