Additional Cooling Fans
 
Has anyone attempted to additional cooling fans on the front of the radiator for additional cooling?

For what?

To help with reducing the temp of the coolant. These cars run hot by nature so I figured this could help that.

More fans isn't better: firstly the smallest fan in the series will limit the others, and secondly you don't want faster air, you want more heat exchange surface = bigger radiator.

help reduce what? are you having a problem with coolant temp right now?

if you don't, then you are just trying to re-invent the wheel

most rx8 out there drives with stock everything and they're all fine. it's really a few dozens of people who needs more cooling for different purposes
