well, am a Mulsim, but i think i could help

The 2jz style manifold is called FFIM (Front Facing Intake Manifold). Ive seen a couple on ebay and Supraforums go for about $500.

About the front mount, If its big, most likely you need to remove your bumper support. Check the pics in My TRGarage. Ive seen some universal 2.5" piping kits (about $100) on ebay. I think that it wouldnt be THAT hard to fabricate the piping using that kit.

Nice, Are you still working on it? if so, i would love to just take a look at it and see how it is mounted. You know, driving without a bumper support isnt safe at all.

The car is all done now besides some little issues that i'm working out. If you ever go out on the weeks or to the meets we should meet up. Yes I was worried I would have to hack up the bumper support but ended up not having to touch it
