1JZ-GTE Clutch Fan Setups

[SupraDuD3]

anybody's setup. But all I needed to know is if they both had the same clearance. I may have to use the GE fan until i can get my hands on a GTE. Thanks much hvyman

 

[hvyman]

Theres about inch and a half of clearance using the stock radiator and ls400/10 blade setup. Its super quiet too which is one reason why i dont want to get rid of it. I can get a pic of clearance later today.

 

[SupraDuD3]

that would be great! i have an aftermarket radiator also, but should be the same size as the koyo. just got my sc400 fan clutch in which is the same as the ls400. now i just need the blades! lol

I am using the stock 7M fan with my SC400 clutch and 2JZ water pump, everything works great, the engine has not run hot yet. I had to ditch the stock 7M shroud though since I had clearance issues. Still, the temp gets to 160 and stays there all day long

Just to update the thread. I'm running the following on my mk3

2jz-GTE (aristo)
LS400 Clutch fan (thanks DM)
7m clutch fan I think it was from a GE though (can't remember)
PWR rad

All fits, next I'll buy a shroud to see if that fits.... The only problem I have is there is so much friction that it's causing my belt to slip under fast gas jabbing or boost in 1st or 2nd gear since it spins up so fast....

Any suggestions?

doesnt a SC400 have a hydralic fan?

 

[hvyman]

Pretty sure its mech.

Zazzn pretty sure you need to turbo fan on the ls400 clutch. Ge one is not heavy enough.

 

[soapra]

SC400 is a hydro fan.

so how did u guys get a sc400 fan clutch when it doesnt have one

I dont know if it's just me or what, but I have read so many different combinations of fan setups on here, now I am confused!
Im doing a 2JZ-GTE (from a mk4 supra) swap into my 1990 MK3 supra. I am trying to stay away from the e-fan route - as I have heard a lot of negatives.

So that being said, can someone who has done / or has knowledge of a 2jz-gte swap in a mk3 point me in the right direction here.

What type to use...
Water pump: ?
Fan Clutch: ?
Fan Blade: ?
Shroud: ?
Any trimming or shimming of anything required: ?


Thanks for any input guys...

Water pump: ? US 2JZ Water Pump
Fan Clutch: ? 2JZ-GTE
Fan Blade: ? 2JZ-GE
Shroud: ? Stock Shroud With A Little Modification

correct ^

some trimming on the back of the blades may be needed to clear the water-neck, but everything else should be a bolt-on affair.

 

[jdemara]

Awesome! Thanks! One last question that may be dumb...
"US" 2JZ water pump... assuming there are differences in 2JZ water pumps then?

Will the driftmotion 2JZ water pump work with this setup listed above?

[IBoughtASupra]

Yes, that is the correct one.

:: zombie :: zombie thread i know, can you fellas measure your setups from where the clutch mounts to the pulley to the front face of the fan blades, i have a thick mishi rad and i need to know if a clutch fan setup will fit. thank you so much

 

[ians13]

old thread, but my setup my help some people.

2jzgte fan clutch with 7mGE or GTE fan blades.
check out the pictures i have no issues with this setup no noise or vibrations.

 

[hvyman]

That's good space.

I'm using the 2jzge clutch and blade. Blade needs to be trimmed but its sits much farther back allowing for a bigger radiator no problem. You can get heavier weight fluid as well for the clutch if you want it to lock up more often.

 

[f00g00]

The 7M fan blades don't fit the 2J fan clutches. The fan mount diameter is over an inch larger on the 2J fan clutch so the hole is to large for the 7M fan to fit around, unless there is an aftermarket clutch with a smaller fan mount diameter for the 2j.

PIC of clearance between fan and rad please.

also what do you mean by heavier weight fluid for the clutch?
