Hi just dropped my sr20det in a JDM S13 that was CA18 before.I added nismo mount and now I'm not sure they are on the right side.I putted R on the right(intake) and LN on the left side(exhaust).
Can you help me find out what is wrong?The engine in the picture is fully seated.

Can it be the subframe?

looks fine to me. The motors in our cars do not sit straigh up and down.

I always though taht they were perfectly straight.

Anyone else?

That is what I was thinking. Most i have seen lean to the drivers side.
