HKS Exhaust Mounting Brackets... installation measurements?

If this violates any proprietary information with HKS, I'll understand if the mods delete it. I feel this thread could be a future reference for anyone that buys a HKS exhaust (carbon-ti, 30th anniversary, etc), and don't get the mounting brackets with it.

It would be nice to either get some measurements on the 2 required brackets, maybe even a drawing. It doesn't necessarily have to be exact copies of the HKS mounting brackets. I have created some pictures to go along with what I'm talking about. If anyone could supply any data to re-create these, or even a place to purchase them... please post.





Note that the rubber bushing they used on the left side is from the rightside of the stock exhaust and visa versa. What do you guys think?

I have the large bracket laying around my garage somewhere. The other is still on the car. I can measure if I get sometime with the car this weekend

That'd be awesome, btw I'm willing to buy them. If you aren't using the small one, it's really easy to take off... just 2 bolts. But yah, at the very least some measurements would be appreciated.

Here they are. They are about 99% correct but this is just for refrence if they are wrong it's not my fault

On the small bracket I wobbled out the holes so I could get the exhaust to work on my jdm bumper when I had it.

some steel plate, cut a notch in the middle and bent 90 degrees and welded a bead to strengthen it back up and 10 dollar exhaust clamp kit at advanced auto made me this...



I just made sure to mount the hanger as high as possible

Hey guys sorry to comment on such an old post but I just picked up the hks ti carbon for my evo 9 and I never got the bolts that are used to mount the gray brackets. I was hoping by chance someone would know what size bolts those are.
