JDM's have it, mine 91 does. What year engine? Possible they deleted it with the newer years. Is there a plugged hole where it used to be? Have you checked on the other side?

I have seen J30 fuel rails with both a untapped bung and another with nothing at all.

Currently I have a z32 PCM in one of those J30s running great with no engine light but shows code 42 when scanned.
