The 2 bolt tells me it's an RB mount... They're what I used for my SR... I had to make the chassis hole bigger to accept them though.

Edit: Here's a pic of the RB25 Mount installed on my SR.

They were free. Friend of mine did an RB25 swap and had them left over. They were in perfect condition and a good bit stiffer than the stock KA and SR ones. I still wanted my car streetable as in I don't want to shake to death but I also wanted something to support my power goals. Just one of those custom spur of the moment things that I'm 100% glad I did. They seem to push the SR back a little further than what the stock mounts do too. I can get 2-3 fingers between my head and firewall. Like I said before, all it took to use them was me taking a drill and making the chassis holes longer to accomodate 2 bolts instead of one. That was another PLUS for the RB25 mounts. Have to say I trust the 2 bolt design better than the 1 bolt.

so when you free rev your engine does in move a lot? cause on the stockers it moves a ton. i might be able to get a pair for free. and i also want stiffer mounts. although i dont care if they are solid. ill have a balanced engine when i put them in so it shouldnt vibrate much.

It didn't when it was stock. It did the initial rotation from the immediate torque and then it would sit still...

I'm not sure about right now... I still have some simple things to finish up to get my car running.. (plug in ecu, finish battery relocation, hook up the cold pipe, and switch out my intercooler hose clamps for t-bolt clamps)
