looks like it's just the vechicle specific fitting kit that's discontinued, you can buy a the listed universal one and pick up a fitting bracket of the for sale section or ebay, usually one kicking about.

Yea The HKS Brackets / mounts all seem to be the same. I bought an Old HKS dump valve just for the mount and it fitted my SSQV.

Its just a C Clip holding it on

I dont think theres any difference mecahnically with that new SSQV3, I think its just a different shape because of all the copies that are out now of the past designs

i got mine :) it arrived the other day. MR2 specific kit from JDMperformance.co.uk i think it came to £240 with a purple insirt and postage which seems to be cheaper than alot of places are selling the SSQV2 for. i also had the same problem with nengun discontinueing the part after i had paid for it

they added a hologram to the ssqv 3 which is supposed to make it harder to copy so shouldnt be any copies out there yet.
