I totally agree the stock fan is the best unless like me you have a custom shroud made for the electric fans

Even then the stock fan will probably still flow twice as much as the electric fans however do we need the fan to flow insane amounts while were taking corners at 70+mph I dont think so

I still have all the oem parts ready to go back in if I find that the temp is a lot higher than the car - or I - can tolerate
Ok. For what it's worth though, if (and only if) it overheats using an aftermarket radiator and your electric fans, I'd suggest putting the oem fan back in INSTEAD OF experimenting with an aftermarket water pump. *shrug*

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
