Maybe, but it will put excess stress on your chassis and basically destroy drive ability of your car.

Those mounts on Nico are garbage.

The mounts on ebay look like they copied the mounts I was selling. It appears they built a interlock system into them because they were having problems with them coming apart.
Reason for this is it says right in their ad if the mount comes apart then they will give you your money back or exchange it.

Honestly this would scare me.

The mounts I was selling were actually lift tested picking up a pickup with a forklift with the mount holding the two items together.

Never ever had a problem with KA/SR mounts coming apart. In fact I can still get them made. Fact is I stopped selling them because everyone got cheap and did not want to pay for them. At $100 a set they were less than a lot of stuff on the market. though cheap asses like above just chose to try and roll their own junk because no one wants to spend good money on our cars anymore.
How you doin' Expert,
For the sake of all who read your posts I hope your other 11,134 posts were not so lacking of factual information. The world does not need another self proclaimed expert preaching a bunch of "I think". You know absolutely ZERO about those mounts on eBay, Z-E-R-O, nothing about the urethane used, the steel frame internals, the testing done or if there was ever a problem before their current design. But you will be the first guy to jump up and scream "I think...........blah blah blah" to make yourself sound smart, when you really don't "know". If you don't know, that's fine, none of us know it all, but if you don't have the facts, stay in the back of the bus with your mouth shut and ears open. You might learn something for the next time someone wants to know what you "know" not what you "think".
One more thing, unless you were selling urethane mounts over three years ago, there is no way the mounts you "used" to sell could have influenced the Ultra Mounts in any way. And, there is a huge difference between "selling" and "building". If you build it right a third grader can sell it.

How was that for a first post, Boo........Yaa

LOL Wow typical noob you are.
Oh and yeah I was selling Urethane mounts over three years ago actually 4-5 years ago to be exact, in fact we were selling urethane mounts before most people were stateside.

If you really had done your research on me? You would have seen that. I think you're the one with your head firmly planted up your ass. I bet you are the one selling those mounts on ebay? Since your screen is motormounts.

It should be motormouth!

Oh and mister noob trying to school a long time member. I don't post without facts and you did not even quote me. You did not even paraphrase me. I never said I knew those mounts. I stated based on what they posted why it might not be a good idea.

You are just a little to quick on defensive, which usually means I struck a nerve and I am probably right. Just an observation based on your knee jerk reaction.

You already blew your defensive. give it up loser.

JGS poly mounts, weve already gone over this in 100 threads.

Am I the only one who actually inspected the hockey puck style mount, and say the bolts going through them were cocked to the side?

Mabye everyone forgot that the nissan ka/sr mounts "bolts" were offset, and there is added stress on the contact surface.

Am I the only one who saw this after I put the mounts in?

JGS poly, 100x better than any solid mount, hardly ANY vibration.

drift freaq,
You were and are correct on the "struck a nerve". I over reacted and took personally what I felt was a dis on my product that I've worked hard on, sold hundreds of sets of and gone beyond the call of duty to make sure the customer gets his mounts fast. All of this with not one failure of a mount. Still, with hundreds of sets out there with no failures, I still get the soup can, Pringle chips tube, or Jello mold stuff. I have re-written that eBay listing 10 times over the years trying to figure what makes people tick and try to instill confidence that the mounts will not break. No matter what I write, someone finds a way to slam the mounts and twist what I say into "They Suck". There is not one person out there that has had a "first hand" bad experience with our mounts. It's like those old Frankenstein movies, all the villagers want to kill Frankenstein and burn the castle, Frankenstein didn't do anything wrong, so what's up. The mounts are designed to take both compression and tension loads into account, there is no metal to metal contact inside the mount, I use the best materials I can get, and for some reason, people that have never tried them, spread the word that they SUCK. Maybe I should raise the price to the $200 mark like a couple of the other posters were saying was the going rate for a quality set of mounts.
Anyway, about my previous post.... MY BAD. I'll be going to the back of the bus now, to be with the other Noobs. Peace, MotorMouth

welcome to the club, its calling running a business and selling a product. in our industry, no one operates without getting slack. i sell top dollar shit and still people manage to complain.


do yourself a favor, dont listen to what people have to say. look at your bank account, it speaks for itself.

I am thoroughly impressed by this response. I completely understand the crap you are going through. Quite honestly we did sell quite a few of the mounts ourselves as well. We did run into the naysayers as well who said our mounts had a bolt through them or assumed they did.

We even had a guy post in our thread about how he was going to go buy studs and urethane tubes and make his own. It was fucking hilarious.

Now that you have stated what you have, about your mounts? I would no doubt say you probably have a quality mount there.

GSXRJordan is right, the mounts were developed when I was working with Syko.
Syko developed an even crazier mount for the RB kit. It is by far one of the best mounts I have ever seen on the market.
Syko pretty much abandoned the old yellow mount design in favor of his newer design.

Can't say that I blame him. His newer mount design was fucking bad ass. It is also not a cheap mount to make. Its also only for RB installs.

I can indeed still get the old the Yellow design for people.

Though honestly, I gave up much interest in marketing them. Why you may ask?
Well between when we originally marketed and the time when we stopped and I brought them back to market on My OWN(aka nothing to do with Syko), the market had changed. People were being cheap.

There were people selling garbage stud through the middle mounts on ebay for $50 and no one bothered to take the time to read and understand the differences. Results? Very slow sales. I dropped marketing them.


Oh and for the record I am not Syko, I worked with Syko and I do not anymore.

We went our separate ways a few years ago because we had different ideas and goals. He by far makes the best RB install kit on the market. His work is exceptional.

It is the inspiration from that, that has pushed me to do things righ
