Hey guys, which motor mounts are u Turbo people running? I don't think my OE mounts are gonna handle that much power. I recnetly put in ES inserts on the dogbone and the rear one on the tranny so I think all I need is the left and right ones on the engine? I'm only doing a BB DET and dont plan on going over 250hp anytime soon.
TIA,
Nick

I use JWT motor mounts.

I'm using the JWT solid mounts also. I like them a lot.

I believe it was $250 for the entire set (4 mounts). I don't think they sell them separately, but you could call to find out.

Are these just inserts or the whole mount? Just curious and wasn't too familiar w/ them. TIA.

JWT makes the whole mounts, thats why they are expensive (and they are very strong . ES is one of the companies that makes inserts. Anyone correct me if Im wrong here...
Nick

Do they sell just the left and right engine mounts, excluding the mounts on the tranny? and how harsh does it make the ride? and also what's the $$ ?
Thanks
Nick

U have to press in the JWT mounts. don't forget about that.

Go to Advanced Auto Parts and pick yourself up some 3M Window Weld and fill in your current mounts with that goo and let them harden. $10 for the same things as ES or JWT inserts for pennies in comparison. I've filled my mounts in before with the older McMaster-Carr 94 shore urethane (which works very well) but the 3M Window Weld should be available locally at an auto parts store and is about $10 cheaper than that urethane. I'm going to use the 3M solution here on my NX very soon.

I have the homemade rear insulator (tranny mount near firewall) and its great for regular driving, but I want a stiffer (ie, noisier) motor mount for racing. Does anyone have suggestions on how to buy or make a second mount that fits this description? The JWT piece would probably be good but I don't want to buy a whole set.

I would want to replace the whole piece on the crossmember, not just swap inserts. I don't want to use the ES inserts here.

That is why I went with PRI's motor mounts, they sold you the mounts complete, just bolt them in. I like the way the car idles, every damn thing shakes! Mounts are very important, I have a bolt-on car only, and they made a HUGE difference...

I got ES inserts in mine and they feel nice. Didnt completely get rid of wheel hop but it helped take away alot of the torque steer. Driving long distances on the interstate, the steering wheel vibrates enuff to annoy u but not enuff to take em out. GOOD $20 i spent.

Did you completely empty out the rear mount and fill it with the 94 shore urethane? Thats what I did, and I couldn't imagine anything more solid than that, except for maybe concrete or solid metal.

I'm using McMastercarr trans and rear mounts, ES passenger side mount, and a custom aluminum dogbone mount.

I want to do the custom mounts job with the 3M window sealler. But want to know how much time did you let it dry? I let it dry for 18 hours and when I removed the tape all the urethane dropped like if it was water. Thanks.

iam useing the motor mounts that sr20development sell they run for 150 they have to be pressed in iam happy with them if you like the feeling of all that bad ass vib,deep tone in your car...

Wow, this is an ooooooooold thread.

But on topic, I've got some sort of pourable urethane I picked up from govmn't surplus I'm gonna try soon. Its a 2 part solution, no pouring in layers or ovens needed, and it cures very quickly. Should be worth a shot at least.

i have all 4 PRI mounts in my b13 too.....even my key ring vibrates :) i have both the front and rear ES inserts in my b14.....IMO, go with the PRI's, they feel better.

I have to agree with the PR motor mounts. I've got them on my 200sx w/ GTi-R swap and they feel great. There's a lot of vibration but the engine doesnt move and almostcompletely eliminates wheel hop on their own. Great investment if you ask me.

I have the pli mts, and a custom frt mt, at first a lot of viberation, guess i got use to it, they work great. now if i could only get the wheels to hook...then we could break some axels:D

well to put it simply motor mounts ROCK. i got a set of place racing ones in my Spec
they make the car shake more but damn no more wheel hop ( have you ever been in a 2k2 specv when you nail second and make the front jump bout 6 inces off the ground HEHE )
