SPAL fan group buy!

R0b_ · 07-30-2004, 02:23 AM

Lets see if we can generate some interest in some nice high quality SPAL fans! This should help out all those turbo and track guys!

We need at least 5 orders to get this going, and I believe I might be able to get the price lower if we get 10+ orders.

Here is what I've been able to work up for everyone:

11 or 12" SPAL fans, either are appropriate for our needs.
I separated them by low (still much more than stock), medium, and high air flow - see the CFM ratings at the end of the line.

I think the 12" pull type medium size are probably the best deal personally, but it all depends on your needs, so this buy is wide open for both push and pull types, low or high flow applications.

Here are the specs:

Item# Product Title Height Width Depth Airflow (CFM)
30100364 11 Inch Fan - (Pull) 12.2 11.57 2.05 810
30100365 11 Inch Fan - (Push) 12.2 11.57 2.05 810
30100375 12 Inch Fan - (Pull) 13.23 12.64 2.05 870
30100384 12 Inch Fan - (Push) 13.23 12.64 2.05 870

The "Low" models are $63.25 each ($126.50 a pair)

MEDIUM
--------
30101500 11 Inch Medium (Pull) 12.2 11.57 2.48 970
30101502 11 Inch Medium (Push) 12.2 11.57 2.48 970
30101504 12 Inch Medium (Pull) 13.23 12.64 2.48 1230
30101505 12 Inch Medium (Push) 13.23 12.64 2.48 1230

The Medium air flow models are $101 ($202 a pair)

HIGH
-------
30100178 11 Inch Fan - (Pull) 12.36 11.93 3.7 1390
30100177 11 Inch Fan - (Push) 12.36 11.93 3.7 1390

11" high flow fans are $126.50 ($253 a pair)

30100176 12 Inch Fan - (Pull) 13.03 13.03 3.7 1630
30100175 12 Inch Fan - (Push) 13.03 13.03 3.7 1630

The 12" high flow models are $120 ($240 a pair)

185FH 185 Degree Thermostat, Relay and Wiring Harness $44.76
195FH 195 Degree Thermostat, Relay and Wiring Harness $44.76

Installation kits, wiring harnesses alone, thermostats alone are all available, but you can really just do the zip-tie through the radiator trick to install them if you want. I'll be using the 185 degree thermostat + wiring harness + relay personally, I'd rather not run the fans if I don't need them, and I don't want to worry about forgetting to flip a switch when it should be on.

I'm shooting to end this buy in a month, so we can all get the fans while it is still hot outside! August 30 is the cutoff currently.

EDIT: Pricing was wrong on the 11" high models, they actually cost more than the 12" ones! Correct pricing is listed above.

EDIT: Further price drop with 11+ people:
"low" series as listed above price drops to $59.25 each ($118.50 pair)
"medium" goes to $94.50 ($189 a pair)
11" "high" goes to $118.50 ($237 a pair)
12" "high" goes to $112.50 ($225 a pair)

I'm interested. Gotta double check the clearance between my Koyo and Avenir T25 and see which model will fit.

R0b_ · 07-31-2004, 03:40 AM

OK, confirmed.. if we get 11+ people ordering, the price has another drop...

"low" series as listed above price drops to $59.25 each ($118.50 pair)

"medium" goes to $94.50 ($189 a pair)

11" "high" goes to $118.50 ($237 a pair)
12" "high" goes to $112.50 ($225 a pair)

Well alrighty then, this one is dead. Nobody wants them I guess except me.

I can hook you up Rob, I sell these things at my cost anyways. And yes, the installation kits are a damn ripoff. You can make your own a lot cheaper. Also, I did a nifty radiator fan override write-up for NPM awhile back, and the current draw of these fans is the same or less than OEM, so you can hook them up like stock, or you can wire up the override using a single relay and a switch and it won't run when the car is off, but it will when the ignition is switched to ACC. Let me know if I can do anything for you.

R0b_ · 09-02-2004, 12:43 PM

Thanks but I already gave up and snagged those cheap ones for $60 that popped up a week ago on the forum. I'd like to see that writeup on wiring them though!

Toolapcfan · 09-02-2004, 03:09 PM

Did that $60 include shipping? Anyhow, here's the link to that write-up:

I paid $80 shipped.. they are just generic el-cheapo used ebay type S-blade 12" 1200CFM fans. I do need some mounting brackets though, PM sent.

JDM_2ner · 09-10-2004, 04:53 AM

pencil me in for a "low' 11" puller fan.

Can't do it man, this one is closed.. it's more of an off-topic conversation now.

Thread is now closed to let it die.
