13dollar custom engine mount(s)*big pics* Sun, 10 July 2005 10:25 Go to previous message
a while ago i asked about options for strengthening engine mounts

so thought about it for a while spoke to the old man lol we came up with going to a 4x4 shop and buying a nissan patrol neulathane (spelling) mount.

this will vary for different cars but mine is a 162 celica with a 3sgte. i removed the front mount punched out the inner ring which the standard rubber mount is connected to. got a bit of 3inch tube with 4mm walls. welded that into the outer ring of the engine mount then i cut off as much rubber as i could from the mount which holds the sleeve which the main bolt goes through. then added the patrol mount into the stainless tube, added the sleeve and test fitted and then later installed it is 3 times as firm as a normal engine mount but still not engine vibration.

aint a real good write up so ill post some pics Razz

my computer wont let me cut the pics down so sorry
