running hot 87 gn

[turbobusa69]

before i buy an ac enclosed trailor for my gn, hoping someone could help. just installed a pst front mount ic and a alum rad. car is running at 180-185 driving and will creep to 200 at a light. a friend has the same set but also a electric meizer water pump and a black max fan. his runs much cooler. my ? is the stock water pump good enough? also was thinking of getting the dual fans from rc. are they a big improvement over the stock fan? i am south fl so its 95 in the shade here.

already have a 160 stat, oil cooler removed, tranny lines go into the radiator, running 1 gallon antifreeze and distilled water

any help would be great

the dual fan setup from ranchargers kicks ass. will make a big improvment with your cooling issues. it cooled my temp down 20-30 degrees. just remember to get the improved wire harness from racetronics or something similar.

Since you're in south florida, you might want to look at running RMI-25 and distilled water instead of antifreeze. I think there's some info on www.arizonagn.com about rmi.

What he said. With a new radiator, stock intercooler, and AC on high, mine still crept to > 200 in afternoon stop-and-go. I installed the RC fan and it has never been over 180 since.

Another vote for the RC fans with Racetronix harness. Well worth it, I dropped 30 degrees in stop and go traffic with the AC on.
