I purchased a set of Nismo transmission mount and ProjectSilvia Engine mount from projectnissan.com for 150 including shipping a week ago. got them recently and i DIDNT NOTICE that the engine mount where some unknown brand not nismo... anyway.. here is a photo...

They are very solid. I am positive that this will not dampen any impact from the engine... or am i wrong??? did anyone purchase this????? what should i do??

return these??????

STIFF is all I need to say about those. if you're still looking for some comfort with your ride and not having to feel every last vibration, I'd suggest getting the nismo ones.

do you have them installed on your car???????? that is wat i thought but now the question is.. will that stiffness damage the chassis and engine mounting points - engine itself on the long?????

I did. switched back to nismo shortly after trying those out. It's not really gonna damage anything, the extra vibrations that would run down the chassis might loosen a few nuts and bolts a bit quicker along the way and the nuts holding the mounts in place. ha ha ha. you'll also notice the vibrations from the engine are much more evident as you drive.

I have nismo motor and transmission mounts and I love them. Car feels much better. Vibrates when your at a stop, not really that bad I think. Dont know how much worse the projectnissan's can be. surely not that bad.

The ones I had tried were Cusco's which are what the projectnissan's and kazamas are all pretty much based off of. If you've got a great running engine, it'll be decent. If you've got stuff like a rough idle or an engine that misses and rocks around you'll wish you hadn't gotten those mounts for sure. ha ha ha. It'll depend on what the car is meant for. If it's main duty is on the street, I'd suggest the nismo's over those any day.
