Moved to Tech. DIY is for when you have a set of instructions to post, and I don't see those here yet.

yup, a DIY is here. You need to remove the radiator to get the fans out, have fun

Yes OEM... got it in yesterday. Very frusterated now that it came without the wiring connectors. and a wiring harnace is around $1000. Just about ready to drive this car into the Gulf of Mexico

wiring harness 1000 ? which one are you getting ? and Why do you need it ?

So you bought an OEM fan shroud with fans and the connectors were cut off? Or was your original wiring harness modified and cut? How is that the cars fault? Either way they are fans, the wiring is simple. Maybe your should go to a mechanic.

I bought the Mizu fan. there are no connectors. Looks just like the on you bought. can i use the connectors on the old one and just rewire? Why is the dude telling me at the auto parts store i will run into problems if i rewire.
Thanks ,

Yes you just cut the connectors off of the stock fans and wire them to the Mizu fans. But, I don't recommend the Mizu fans, they are cheap and won't last long. But you can use them until they fail and then replace them with SPAL fans.

Oh, and never listen to an autoparts store employee, they don't know shit.

The guy at that store is a retard, if you connect the correct wires manually, it will do the same as a harness.

I'm guessing he is the one who tried to tell you that you need a $1000 harness.

Do any alarm bells ring to you?

An auto store worker tried to tell me i need meths to clean my maf sensor and that I should buy this new fancy fuel additive that cleans the cylinder head which apparently gets really dirty on rx8s.

Go figure
