New info on Honda Blower

Featured Replies

Hello All... the Honda Prelude 97, 98, 99, 00, and 01 blower fits a 240Z. There are additional screw holes in the flanges that fit perfectly and I clipped off the nibs in the cage with toenail clippers. A much newer replacement part and it REALLY blows.

Nice thats a good thing to konw

have you guys heard similar things about the 88-91 civic blower. i tried it and the gerbil wheel portion was just a lil too deep. what are you guys using as a seal between the blower motor and the cavity it bolts up to?

I didn't take pics...sorry. Tried 89 civic blower first with little success as the brushes were worn. The prelude one is a perfect fit (no gasket needed) as long as you clip the nibs on the cage.

Does anyone know the differences if any between RHD and LHD cars?

Why? Are there LHD and RHD blowers?

Did you use just the motor and the 240 fan, or did you use the Honda motor and the Honda fan? I tried the '90 civic motor and the Z fan, and it wouldn't fit. thanks, Ken

I think the primary reason that the 240Z blower doesn't put out much air is the metal fan (birdcage). It is heavy. I used the entire assembly from the prelude. It has a nylon birdcage and is much lighter.

Do you think it would also fit on a 280Z? Did it plug in directly with no mods?

thx
