**JDM Motor Mount or nismo mounts**

[MES14AN]

Yo Im preping my sr20 to get it ready to put in. I have these badass japanese motor and transmission mounts Ive never seen b4 that came with the s14 clip. There is no rating # for hardness just some factory #'s but they feel really firm (prolly firmer than nismos, but never had them to compare). Im debating if i should just use them or buy nismo mounts instead, regardless im keeping the mounts for another project. This will be for the streets daily driven and I dont want to put them on just to take them off again.I want to do it right the first time while the engine is out.

Anybody running something like to this? Do you think these mounts will be good for the street car? Would you choose these over the nismos for a ddand durability? These things hardly flex when i move em! Should I use these?

Hmm, im not a fan of nismo, they arent much stiffer than stock.

I went Cusco, You can get the Project Nissan ones and they are pretty much identical to the Cusco ones. Peak performance has some that are even more aggressive but its your call!

Those mounts look nice for a street car if they're solid rubber like they appear.

How is the difference feel? Are the cusco's toleratable on the street assumming that you do? HOw would these jdm ones compare to it?

RB25 Mounts are firmer than stock and all you have to do to fit them is make the holes in the chassis a little bigger. They're PERFECT for a street car.

koo koo so Ill I need to do now is throw an rb in than right?lolThats a new one I appreciate the creativity. Is that what you havenow?

[PyR0NiAk]

My friend did an RB swap and used custom urethane mounts. His stock ones were in his garage. He gave them to me. They fit the SR so I just had to make the chassis fit them. I just took a large drill bit a made the holes bigger. This was one of my little ways of being unique with my swap. Saved me money on aftermarket mounts and these are still much stronger than the factory sr/ka mounts.

Those ones look alright, but the threads look f***ed up.I'm going solid mounts

[MES14AN]

Anymore opinions, what nobody thinks these mounts are good?btw I can have the mount rethreaded thanks for you concern

[OM3GA]

Rethread the mount? Thats more trouble than its worth IMO.

Cusco mounts (Project Nissan mounts are the same like i said before)

They are not too bad on the street, sure there is vibration but im not real into the comfort thing i like to get the best parts for the money. The mounts perform great, i have had them for over 5 years and they are still just as great as the day i got them. If you want comfort go ahead and get the Nismos but the Cusco style mounts are in between the Nismo and Solid mounts.
