Oh okay I'll probably just find some metal brackets and bolt it down from osh or home depot.

Why use a jz canister? I've never seen one. The tercel one I have is probably 1/4th smaller than stock.

the jz is a lot smaller also. That's what I use, but I have it hid in my passenger side fender well.................don't none of you try to steal it either since I told you of it's secret location.

Just grab yourself a tiny one off a Kia Spectra and take the 2 bolt bracket off the firewall while your at it. You could fit that thing anywhere and run the line out through the fender. Just make sure you source a check valve with the correct crack pressure as Kia's don't run one.

There's a few people on here that are running a JZ CC because of it's small size. I also hear that some of our North American models of Lexus' use the same CC.

Here's a pic for reference.

err.. Vacuum pump?

First time I've seen the JZ Canister.... this is an automatic win for anyone looking for a better solution. Don't even know why there are these type of threads when this option is there!

That is a pretty cute charcoal canister! However, if we use that on a US spec car, it creates room on the hot side. I believe it would be a nice cosmetic enhancement, even if you aren't adding a catch can.

Yep, that's a vacuum pump. How else are you going to keep vacuum to the cruise control actuator when the vacuum system comes under boost while driving? (Like going up a hill).

I have my original Charcoal canister, but tossed my heater control valve. My greddy Catch can sit nice in tight without heat soaking. Only true heat I have notice is from my feed line from the valve covers.
