I am very tempted to use the fan pump for running the steering in the 1JZ XF, for a couple of reasons:
1. It's in a very handy place
2. It would save getting rid of/bypassing it
3. It has a potentially useful looking solonoid on the side of it, that (might?) even work to regulate PS pressure
The problems I see are:
1. I then have to get rid of the PS pump, and rearrange the belt to work without it, which it won't do without an extra idler pulley/moving something else
2. The fan pump, while it has a proper high pressure outlet on it, looks to be much smaller than the PS pump, and may well not have the flow for the job
I'm very tempted to try it, just to see what happens, but I still have to get rid of that damned PS pump.
