Upgraded Engine mounts MAYBE :)

[New-to-240z]

Just thought I would give you a heads up. I have been speaking with McKinney Motorsports on some aftermarket engine mounts. Now, nothing firm yet, but he is going to be looking into making them for the 240-280Z using the stock engine mounts as templates. I have asked that these not be full poly mounts as to make the vibrations too intense, but rather just double the strength of the current stock mounts.

 

Myself, I'm just looking for something stronger then the stock rubber for my future setup (SR20DET @~350HP) that will allow for the engine to sit flatter during heavy tq. I currently only have about 240HP and about 220 tq and I've had brand new mounts put on the day that this was setup and after 2 years, the mounts are tearing the rubber. I think some mounts that at least double the strength of the stock but still keep out SOME vibration would be a good investment and addition to our Z's. If anyone has ever owned the Nismo 240SX engine mounts for the SR20, you can understand what I am going for. Those were VERY durable (both engine and transmission) and made for a VERY stiff engine but very little vibration transfer.

 

If anyone is interested in this please do post in the list and I will keep this updated. The more people we get to show interest the better our chances that these will be made and maybe we can work on a GB for the first run.

 

Cross your fingers!!
