Anyone have stock Motor Mount Specs? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Im looking for specs for the stock motor mount and possibly some nice pics. Might have a source for a cheap replacement for worn mounts and will even set the motor slightly lower.

Thanks!

A stock engine mount will not really sit the motor lower, even if it is modified/refurbished. The lowest sitting engine mount (and stiffest) is the Kazama engine mounts. The Nismo ones, on the other hand, are the softest out of all aftermarket engine mounts, and set the motor at the comparatively highest position.

i guess you didnt understand what I was asking...I am asking for specs...measurements...in MM of the mount....like width, height of mount, overall height, etc....

I have heard of people "making" engine mounts out of flexane and allthread rod...

I mean, it looks like it SHOULD hold....but I would feel more comfortable knowing that my motor mounts are made for that purpose.

Anyway, to get to my point, I want to see if these mounts are similar in size to the stock 240sx motor mount

THANKS FOR ANY HELP!

Do you have the stock motor mounts?

If so, what is keeping you from measuring them?

I went with 2 1/4 for my custom mounts...
that lowered engine a bit...
I recall hieght being like 2 5/8 high and a 5degree angle on 1 side.. I went with alum.
good luck.
enjoy.

any photos? These mounts I have been looking into are a total of 60mm tall with M10 studs. That puts the mount about 2.36 inches tall....these are also available in 80 durometer (stock is about 50) Looks like we may have a good possible fitment even tho stock engine mounts use a 12mm bolt tho....is this correct?
