View Full Version : Mazsports coolant mod help HERO 12-24-2006, 03:51 AM I just recieved this as a Christmas gift and seem to have trouble with the directions........ Has anyone installed it and took the time to takes pics that would direct me on the route to installing it? Anything would help. Thanks in advance Sam olddragger 12-24-2006, 08:19 AM Its not Christmas yet! OD mysql101 12-24-2006, 08:22 AM scott's directions are pretty clear. You just cut the coolant hose at the 90 degree bend, put the barb part in, then hook up the ground wire. The other end goes into the fuse box (far right side of the car in a black plastic box) and replaces the OEM fan fuses. StealthTL 12-24-2006, 08:36 AM ".......and replaces the OEM fan RELAYS." You would still need the stock fuses.... S mysql101 12-24-2006, 08:39 AM yup, wrong word. It wouldn't matter - the relay wouldn't fit into the fuse slot anyway :P HERO 12-24-2006, 02:29 PM Its not Christmas yet! OD We gave out secret santa gifts a little bit early this year haha. The one thing im not sure on is the location of the coolant hose. Is any coolant going to leak out when I cut the hose?

Sam Yes some will leak out, do it on a cold motor and it will not be that much. http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?t=97975 Post#17 has photos mysql101 12-24-2006, 03:59 PM My car was cold, and I didn't notice any coolant come out.
