Wire it to an IAT with a fan controller kit so it comes on at your target IAT.

It would be wise to have a shop evac the AC system for you, then also have the shop recharge it correctly as well. If the receiver/dryer is old it should be replaced in the system as well.

Paahhhh you don't need washer fluid. Well not there. You can put a generic tank anywhere.
Sounds reasonable. Maybe boil the thermostat to make sure it's fully opening.

And you can put small puller fans on them to keep heat soak down at lower speeds between pulls or on the dyno.

To equal the area of your single large FMIC I would think you would need dual side mount?

I think dual SMIC is a better choice, if it's possible.

Sounds like the system pressure is going high due to lack of cooling, is it missing fins? My 7G Celica condenser was missing most if the fins in the lower 1/3 of it, replacing with a good new Denso un...

If it ever stops working as good all you need is some nasal spray.

I still think if you dump the fogs and put two air scoops there with some duct you could get air up to the top of the radiator bypassing the FMIC and might be OK, certainly cheaper to try that out th...

Ever seen a GT4 front bumper?

Look at how much more open space there is and that big extra opening up top, you need something like that.

I think you need to keep the crash bar, it's super important should there be an impact.

It shouldn't be hard to use some aluminum bar stock to make a bracket to bolt to the studs and then bolt the fans to the bar stock, should you later desire the bigger radiator.

Cause the rad is too thick or the mounting studs don't line up?

The stock fans will move WAY more air. The AC adds a fairly large heat load IN FRONT of the radiator meaning it's getting pre-heated air through it, that's why having high airflow is so critical when ...

I skimmed and didn't look at his product choices, but most wet dressings actually attract dirt and create grime even if they look good for a brief period of time. Dry dressings are where it's at, aero...

Looks like it's missing the airbox and or airflow meter? Mouse damage on the trunk padding?

No, sorry. It's not a bad idea to just check all the fuses with a fuse tester. You should be able to jump the other two terminals and force the pump on, but that 7 volt reading is a little odd unless ...

Usually power is from a fused source to the coil and the computer grounds the coil to close the contacts.
