Just dropped my 2jzgte in and notice it didn't have a fuel return line or at least I couldn't find it....... Where is it? Or does it not have one?

Also what did you guys do with the vapor line from the fuel tank?

Now that I dropped it in I'm gonna have a lot of questions.

I just found out that a 95 Avalon has some common parts with a 1J. I know for sure the ignitors are the same, and the coil connectors, and ECU connectors are the same (as a soarer ECU). I believe there are other connectors are the same, just havent been able to verify yet.

Just a small note, but may be beneficial to some, I know all my coil connectors were toast upon arrival.

It's just like the 7M return line. Look at the return end of the rail, you will see what I am talking about.

I cut the EVAp line down below by the feed lines and it has a small breather on it. No gas fume smells here.

I know the 1JZ fuel return is in the area of the oil filter.

Look at the lines from the rail, it's not hard to find. You don't see the FPR on the front of the rail?

Gottcha, this is a perfect example of what happens when you drag a project out for half a year. I'll check next week. Thanks for the help.

Brake booster vacuum hose,where do yall connect it? Only place I could find would be the back of the intake manifold facing the fire wall.

I have the yellow one. The GE came in a lot of cars.

Albert and I discussed this, the distance of the fan clutch are the same when referring to the GTE and GE but it's the fan that will determine how close it sits. Get the 16361-46040

I have a Koyo in my car as well.

i noticed the only option for power steering was a driftmotion line, what happened to the good ol' 2jz power steering line from a mkiv supra? and you dont need to loop the vac line and have a bad idle and keep a closer to stock setup.... ive helped quite a few people who didn't like their idle over this... plus i walked into an advanced auto and it was cheaper than a braided ss line =P know it might not be a big deal in lower elevations but at higher it was enough to die heh

Confirmed this last night

GTE/GE - Fan Clutch
GE - Fan Blade
GTE - Water pump


Fan clutch/Blade setup WILL NOT WORK WITH ATi Super Damper, It his the bolts that hold the balancer to the steel hub assembly. You would have to space out the fan blade and I did not confirm if this will work with my Koyo Radiator yet.

2J GTE/GE setup will not work as it touches the bolt for the ATi Pulley. This clears it no problem.
