Lets talk motor mounts

[Charlie240sxt]

Ok there are alot of new diff mounts out there now and i pretty sure i dont know of some that are. Also i am dead set on upgradeing my mounts cuz the old stockers HAVE TO GO.Ok down to bizz i know of 4 sets here we go.

Nismos - heard to be alot better then stock but still not super stiffNot sure of the name but i'm pretty sure its Jegs or something like that cheaper but heard to be on some level as NismosCusco with ether DIY or the Peak Perf transmission mount - heard to be stiffer then nismos Xcessive motorsports solid mounts - as the name says SOLID all metal from what i understand

Ok diff mounts will be better for what you doing with the car duh, so in my case its hopefully not going to be a DD for alot longer and i ride tien He's on all the way stiff all the time(for the most part).So the rattles i dont think will really bother me to much plus there cheaper then the rest.I was thinking the soild mounts but i been also thinking spending the extra money to get the Cuscos cuz i'm not sure that i want to give up that much more daliy driveabilty

Would love some peoples input and i am sure there are more mounts out there and get this info in one spot

your engine vibrates. unless you're positive you want something that's gonna shake the crap out of you, get the nismos. you still get a decent amount of vibration through the car from the stiffer material, but no where near as bad as the cusco's, or solid mounts.

i've got no problems with my nismos on my daily driver and i've had em for a while now. the stiffer ones you'll want gone soon enough after you pop em in on a daily driver.

Just to get this cleared away, the cusco mounts are SOLID, and they shake bad on start up. If you can live with that, and would like improved high rpm shifting, the cuscos would be a good choice along with any other solid mount. hold on, Ill post a pic of the mount(cusco's.)



They are solid with a capital S.

Id go with tanabe's transmission mount or even kazamas with that for ultimate stiffness.

But hey, I have nismos.(CA18 specific, and cuscos dont make the CA sit right.)

BTW, nice coilovers I have the same.

I has solid mounts (custom made) & it turned my car into a big vibrator...not an enjoyable experience (contrary to what some of you might think! ) I switched to Uras polyurethane mounts, MUCH MUCH better! Killed the noise/vibration of the solids & still is WAY better than Nismos...
