GTM is no longer. Sounds like you are in trouble. The only thing you could do is contact RJM to see what they use for their GTR manifold conversion. If they use stock 370z rails then maybe the CJ Motorsports rails would work.

They use a totally different rail mounting setup :/ The GTM manifold has a weird 1 off mounting setup with some S shaped brackets.

I was looking at the CJ motorsports rails and I think with some custom bracket they'd work.. Hard to tell without them in hand. I was really hoping others with the GTM kit would of had this problem and a solution, but sounds like just me

get a super short stainles m6 set screw, pick up a can of gas-ga-cinch, clean the rail with acetone, put the sealer on the screw and run it down into the bottom of the mount hole then use a shorter bolt. -ex gtm employee (never seen that one before though looks like its leaking from the internal thread out the mounting bolt)

edit: might be m5 can't remember actually i think it was m5

other option is to have a shop tig it from the inside and run a shorter end fitting so it doesnt hit the weld
