so, why is this a poll? Isn't this more of a fact than opinion question?

Well apparently Nissan doesn't know anything about their cars, and I can put much of this debate to rest.
Even though I spoke with SIX DIFFERENT NISSAN DEALERS they all said there was only 1 fan on the 91-94 SE-R. And so did Autozone, Advanced Auto, Napa, and Pep Boys.

Yet me and SE-Rmonkey just met up at a junkyard and every single B13 had 2 radiator fans, there were about 8 of them, a couple SE-Rs and a lot of GA's. so I picked up the passenger assembly fan and will install tomorrow. Got it for $20 bucks. Nissan wanted $309 for a new one. bhwhwwhhahahaha

I also got some 98 200sx SE-R crystal clear headlights (the ones with the notches) but now I need the notched 98-99 grille. Anybody got one sitting around? I have the $180 Lucino grille from Greg at Gspec and would do a pretty even trade, if it's painted white.

And by the way, BIG BIG THANKS to SE-RMonkey for helping me out. he showed me where the cars were with the parts I needed (the place is ENORMOUS) and also helped me pull some of the stuff out. So thanks man.

Well I have seen 4 B13 SE-Rs with one fan. The only thing they had in common was no factory AC.

You went to the junkyard with Miles? Miles helped you pull the parts? Damn, that guy is a jack of all trades! He must have gotten a weekend day pass though??

Yep. he's awesome. There were a bunch of B13's, and only 1 with no engine. So he lead me to that one because it was a lot easier to pull the rad fans and he helped me out.

There also was a 91 SE-R with the original B13 seats, in fair condition. fronts and backs, could use a cleaning. Not sure how much they want for them but if anyone wants I can go back there next week and take some pics.

i think you're missing the point that one fan is part of the a/c system and one fan is part of the radiator system. This will have them showing up differently both in part number and location. Yes, they both attach to the radiator, but they're designed and manufactured as parts of different systems. Anyone looking at the parts fiche under cooling system will only see one fan, as the other is in a completely different section. This is not their fault. Maybe Nissan's design dept's fault, but not the dealership, not the parts tech, not the service counter employee, not the parts stores, none of that.
