Funny thing, the TA05 IFS Setting Sheet (http://www.tamiya.com/japan/download...5ifs_blank.pdf) shows 4 holes also.

I'm beginning to question my own sanity.
Here's my theory: the regular TA05 has 5 holes front and rear because they're exactly the same part. The IFS-R kit comes with two of the regular upper bulkheads, because they're on the 'A' parts tree and there are other needed parts on there. The IFS-specific front upper bulkhead is on a different tree, 'N' parts. I think perhaps you used the wrong upper bulkhead on the front -- if it has the holes to mount the regular shock tower it's the wrong one.
