look at the first pic i posted. it's a 2jzgte fan clutch with 7mge fan blade. the clutch is aftermarket from advanced auto parts.
Well I'm wondering if maybe you ended up with a 2j blade and clutch, cuz that's what they look like

Yeah I looked it up. its an Imperial Fan Clutch - 6" Import/Compact Part No. 215071 and is apparently designed differently than a standard 2j clutch because the center heat sink area will support the smaller 7M fan.
How stiff is it when you manually spin it hard?

2jzgte fan clutch with 7mGE or GTE fan blades.
check out the pictures i have no issues with this setup no noise or vibrations.
Its not mounted where its supposed to be mounted that is why it fit.

Rc car diff fluid also will work. Something around 3000cst will work. Higher the number thicker it is.

Hard to get a picture with the shroud on. But i have about 2 inches between the fan blade and the stock radiator core.
Bringing this one back... Local is parting out his 700+ 2jz mk3. Has koyo rad. I'm currently on stock rad w/ ls400 fan and 7mgte blade with fan shroud. Will the koyo rad work with my current setup? Not sure what koyo it is if there are different models. Thanks in advance guys.

stock radiator and shroud.
2jzge fan and clutch will have to most room. I had ls400/7m combo before. clutch is spinning backwards and stays locked up at lower rpms when there good.
Have to trim the fan blades on the 2jzge fan but not a big deal.
So the koyo with ls400 fan clutch and ten blade gte fan blade will work if I don't put the shroud on. And if I want to put the shroud on I have to trim?
I don't even consider the LS400 setup to be a viable option since it's use on the JZ motors contradicts the engineering behind it. It will rotate the opposite way than intended on full lock forever, and that most likely has a negative outcome at some point other than being obnoxious.
2J clutch and GE fanblade is the way, and that's what I was referring to when I spoke of the trimming the back and front of the blades.

I guess I'm just used to my car sounding like a helicopter... Sounds just like my fan clutch when I had my 7m. No overheating issues at all. I don't really wanna change my entire setup for an upgraded radiator.. he does have efans with the koyo.. but I like my fan clutch.
Koyo also makes a stock OEM replacement you can see at DM, thats what I am using right now and I haven't had any overheating issues, also running 2j fan clutch with trimmed 2JZGE blade. I have gotten hold of the Advanced auto parts 2J clutch that can use the 7M fan but haven't put it on yet.
