89 240I just got a full set of NISMO motor monts to replace stock mounts.

Three questions:

Are these going to fit?

Are these going to vibrate a lot more than OEM mounts?

Are these hard to install? Amy tips you might have would be welcome

Should I have stuck with OEM mounts?

They fit fine.Check out the other threads by KA owners with them.Very few have had any problems, and the 1/2" is only a problem for those with $8 Ebay strut bars.

it's alright.the problem with them sitting 1/2" high is not a real issue. Most people have strut bars that easliy clear the motor by 1 to 1-1/2" which leaves plenty of room after the rise for the 3rd cylinder spark plug boot (where he had trouble) as long as you aren't using the straight in plug wires and are using the ones similar to stock where the wires make a 90° turn at the boot.
