Default TRD SUPRA MOUNTS and bracket fitment issues.

i have a 93 gs300 with a gte swap. i ordered trd supra motor mounts bc im expecting big power gains and also ive read that they fit and lower the motor about .25 inches. but when i tried to install them it seems as thought they are too big and will actually raise the motor about 2 inches. im just curious, does anyone know what mounting BRACKETS i can use so i can install my motor without raising or loweing it too much. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Good question...
I have an SC300, and I've been thinking the SAME exact thing.
I'd like to lower my engines center of gravity a bit, for the sake of handling (inspired by Subaru Boxer Engine) while harnessing some lost power, by limiting its movement (in other words, getting it to the ground).

Presumabley these are the MKIV mounts ? I heard these fit so im interested as well since my OEM mounts are shot. I've been using them for the mockup anyway but its a pita.
