Message Unless you have a front fascia like the GReddy Gracer or something that looks empty without it, stick with side mounts. I have been helping a buddy with his Z build for the past year or so and one of the biggest headaches and sticking point has been the front mount. Relocating the intakes, cutting the fascia, fabbing piping and brackets, removing the airbag system and tow hooks, amongst other things.

On top of all that, a lot of people have cooling issues with them as well because they block flow to your radiator. While I think his front mount setup is going to look great behind his Gracer, I guarantee he would have went with side mounts if he had it to do over.

With that being said, the TDM Works FMIC that specialtyz sales is the best one on the market because it does not alter our cars crossflow design. After that, it seems you are just paying for size with the other FMIC kits.
