Has anyone fitted a UFI fan & hub.
If so did it help in lowering the temps,

I have no personnel experiance with the info I am about to give you. Only from my research so take it as you like. I have heard good things about the UFI fan & hub assembly but I also stummbled upon a thread which I can't find now adays where a fellow with a TD42 getting hot fitted a Toyota coaster Fan to the existing Nissan Hub & it fixed his running hot problem. A hell a lot cheaper if it dose work. The part number is Toyota Coaster Bus ZPN-06129. He had to mod the fan do fit. From what I can see looking at a pick on Ebay it just needs a bit of the 4 mounting tabs grouns down a little. from what i have read the TD42 hot thing is an air flow issue. These fans like the UFI fan pul a lot more air. Like I said No experiance with it but $90 compared to $600 I'd give the $90 jobbie a go & see. Then you can let me know if it works incase I start experiancing the running hot problems. Cheers Jono.
I'm about to fit this one and add some Toyota silicone oil to my TD42T hub.
This is the fan used on the Infiniti G35

Are they meant to push more air than standard? Looking at those fins... it may .
I was talking to UFI today about ordering bits and bobs and the hub/fan they sell , I'm pretty sure from memory he said was $590 ?
It's way more aggressive than the original. Probably hard to see in the pic but they're impressive to look at closely.
Is that $590 + postage? I don't have that kind of money to throw at a fan and hub. That's 2/3 of the price of the new Mamba turbo I'm buying.
I'm confident the stock hub will do the job with a little more oil added.
Yeah thats big coin for something, i believe, Eric, you dont need. From my understanding anyway. If you put a bigger pump on, bigger turbo, your fuel usage will increase and therfore create more heat, then it would be worth it. Even mine, it gets to 110c fully loaded and towing the camper, it doesn't conecern me too much, but obviously, i want to keep things cooler.
I have read and heard so many conflicting stories on radiators too. Some say the oem rad is good, some say a 3 core is better. Then i have heard that a 3 core will restrict air flow and you will not benenfit. Then you have cheap ally 3 cores, right up to PWR radiator for around 11hunge!
