Replaced Engine + Tranny Mounts

Post by Threshld1 »

Broke down and ordered up some group-n sti mounts. Fairly easy to replace. Put her up in the air, removed all the lower mounting bolts, and pitching arm. Used a floor jack to lift motor and tranny untill the bolt studs cleared.

Getting the two rear bolts holding the engine mount brackets to the block out was a pain is the ass. Took a swivel-socket and some patience to get past the steering rack.

Transmission mount was pretty quick. I had to remove half the cross-member to get enough clearance to get it out but came right out.
Amazing that all the hardware is the same. Took about 3 hours from up to down

Got her all patched up and on the ground and wow... :P World of differance
motor doesnt shake at all, used to move all over the place. Though it just shakes the chassis now :?
Overall much smoother on the on/off gas, and gave my motor a little lower rumble and sound like its running a little better.
