i dont think so..if the modder seal it up,the air from the fan is not strong enough to reach the radiator..instead,he must us stand fan to do that.. huhu..

Yes, ryudox's right...
The fan are too damn far from the radiator... sweat.gif

That fan doesn't seem like it's strong enough to reach the radiator... doh.gif

erm... must have been a while since i have been thru this thread...

anyways,

Now / currently i am running on Nirox P2800 , El cheapo pump. Not Bad. biggrin.gif ( noise erm... i dunt think there is ) , Heat ( a bit warm ) a small 80mm / 60mm fan would do the job.

In My Case, The Pump is inside my casing so i have the case fan to cool down the pump's heat. biggrin.gif been using it for a while biggrin.gif


Before this i used a a really cheap aquarium pump, submerged it in a cookie jar and made some connector on top. biggrin.gif the only problem to that was the heat dumped into the water. If u can get a bigger jar + better radiator, i guess the heat dumped by the pump would not be a problem.

Hope That Helps.

As For Radiator.

Try scavenging for a DAIHATSU MIRA / CHARADE Heatercore.

This 2 stuffs would do the trick. biggrin.gif

i did tried nirox p2800 and a used car heatercore for my earlier watercooling project. but i found nirox pump going to heat up after some time, i feel quite hot when i touch on the pump. so it gives a feel that the pump really dump a lot of heat inside the loop.

below is the picture of heatercore from used car and just did minor mod on the inlet/outlet fittings.

theres some minor cost i didnt put n remember
but at my place the fitting quite expensive

well b4 apply this water cooling
idle temp= 53c
Load temp=60c n up

after apply
idle temp=42-43c
load temp=50c

but i doubt my temp software detector
but at least there some drop of temp
my temp cant drop around 30++
maybe to some factor

1.software detector problem
2. pump not power enough n also submerge
3.heatercore made from aluminium. if copper there might some drop of temp more
