JVT Racing radiator fan installation - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #68944 5 posts Started by bdawgbp1
Anybody out there know anything about installing aftermarket radiators and fans? I just bought a Koyo radiator - dual core 53mm - specifically for 6th gen Celica. It came with 2 JVT Racing 12" high speed fans. I paid $316 for the raiator/fan package. The radiator is direct OE fitment however the fans do not bolt directly to the radiator nor will they fit into the factory fan housings/shrouds. To make matters worse I can't use the factory fans because of clearance issues now due to the thicker radiator. I've tried and can't even get the radiator to drop all the way down - it's hitting the cruise control module, AC lines, and the exhaust header. Wandering if anybody else has ever gone through this and what did you have to do to make it work. Custom fabrication???? Thanks. mad.gif
tried putting the fans infront?

Not enough room there either due to transmission cooler.
relocate the trans cooler? pictures would help.
