gs 300 heating in track days
Hello everyone
i own a gs 300 2008 RWD
and for some time I'm participating in track days'
after 3-4 laps (wich i Ilimit the transmission to stay in gear 3 Sport and pressing the ECT POWER)
the Cooling water temperature rises to 100-110 ° C.
To help the engine cooling system
I would like to know how I can run both vents at full capacity without turning on the air conditioner?
Thanks in advance.

When you say both vents, do you mean both cooling fans? To do this, you have to parallel wire your system. I did this on my Miata when I had turbocharged it as a cheap "fix" for the overheating.
P.S. Although not conventional, turning on the heater while tracking your car really helps too, it expels more heat during these spirited runs and doesn't kick on the AC compressor, keeping you in your power range.

ahaha my buddy did that a long time ago with his turbo mazda back in the days, I was wondering why he would turn on the heat when trying to do hard runs lol....what does it do though really?

On another note to OP
You could always run low-profile high CFM fans (racing fans, they're no that much) for your car also. They're quieter when both fans activate and they're stronger, thus helping you cool down faster on the track. GL!
There are GS's out there that Auto-X and they do well, if not... Why would they be there? For all we know, OP has a nasty susp. setup on his car LOOOL
