billet mounts installed

i haven't pulled the ttr mount yet, so my vibrations felt will most likely go down.

17 and 18mm sockets needed.

torque on the mount to subframe is 40ft lbs on both of them







front mount is cake walk. two 17mm's and an 18mm and it falls out. i did this on a lift tonight in about 15 mins tops. with air tools.

rear one is a bit more technical to get out and swapped. not hard if you have enough ground clearance









really can't see the rear one too well it when it installed. you get the idea though.

dfco is less noticeable when hit. the vibes go away as engine rpm and speed increase. less rocking of the motor itself. i never had wheel hop issues aside from at the track when vht is involved. my tire pressure is set to 34 in the front, and 36 in the rear. did a 1-2 run after i got them in and still rolled smoke off the tires with ease. i can't use the two step to launch the car. meth nozzle is to big. have to drop the hammer at a higher rpm when i get bored enough to do it.

415ml nozzle is a bit big when trying to roll into the throttle.


newp, no bucking. thats more of the driver input than anything else

yes you still need that bracket. its what attaches it to the tranny. the toughest part of the whole install i found was getting the spacers to fit on the bracket with the new mount.

i stand behind this 100% on them working as intended. less power is lost when you get wide open, in a sense more is transfered to the tires instead of using it to rotate the engine. dfco entry and exit feeling is bog down is gone. shuddering when the clutch is popped is gone.

these mounts 110% work as they are designed to
