facing another problem, the brackets...i've bought a set of DM brackets from a shop in Texas...they suppose to be a ruckus racing replicas...but the are not...one side wont align b/c it's too damn short of a bracket (the intake mani side) and the turbo side lined up perfect....and even with one brackets bolted down..they won't mount on the OEM rubber mount? why i don't know?

they sit around 1.3'' forward of the rubber mounts.... ??? pix

intake side bracket (3'' between the holes)

turbo side bracket : (4'' = line up perfect)

right bracket = turbo side. left = intake side

See here the brackets are too small and too short to line up (3'' from hole to hole)

They are supposed to be different sizes like that, i had to take my oil filter block off in order to put it on and mine were directly handed to me by Ruckus racing.

Can you take pix of yours? b/c this is ruckus racing mount on a 1JZ...as you can see the 1JZ uses diffrenet size holes for the brackets?

2JZ is ~4'' from mouting hole to the other....the 1JZ is one side ~4'' and the other is ~ 2.9''
