Its probably best if you just made the parts yourself and have someone weld it up for you. The IRS is actually pretty easy to make. You just have to modify the trailing arms to fit a lower airbag mount. For the top, all you have to do is make a nice strong cross bar that connects the shock towers together and attach the upper mount to that. You'll have to brace that bar well because the weight of the entire rear portion of the car is loaded on that bar. I believe there are photos floating around on how some people did it to theirs.
