    Massive - Solid mounts raising the subframe

    Here are some solid mounts that raise the subframe, allowing to reduce unwanted camber on lowered cars. Being solid, they are not street-friendly, unless you are okay with extra cabin noise. The mounts will keep the subframe from moving around when cornering. Delivery of the first batch is due for February 2nd. Shipping will be a couple of days later.

    10 kits only at intro price.

    Kit requires welding and includes
    - Two machined sleeves
    - Four machined steel caps
    - Four machined steel spacers
    - Four 12.9 graded studs

    Regular price is $150.00usd
    Introduction price is $110.00usd on the first 10 sets. Remaining 10 sets at regular price.
    Shipping will be around $25.00 for Express shipping.

    Intro price - $110 + $25 + Paypal fee = $140.40usd at massivebrakes@gmail.com
    Regular price - $150 + $25 + Paypal fee = $182.00usd at massivebrakes@gmail.com

    All parts are steel, and as they will be welded, they won't be plated. They will be simply oiled for protection against rust.

    Are any other modifications required when raising the subframe? Besides either lowering the diff or using an offset diff mount. I mean like will anything need to be "clearanced"?

    I'm glad someone finally came out with these!

      No need for an offset diff mount. The four spacers are inserted between the diff and the subframe and make-up for the raised subframe. The long sleeve is also designed so that whatever was removed on top, was added at the bottom. Just remove the old rubber mounts and weld the new ones. No other mods required.

            Don't worry. I have 5 sets sold on s14.net, so only 5 sets left at intro price.

            Technical drafts have been approved on Friday. Production is starting on Monday. Due for February 2nd.

              If you have any ideas on how to minimize the road noise that these will add, I will buy a set.

                  It's a race part. Real race cars make all kinds of strange noises...

                  This item will be a regular item.

                    So you have no ideas. Great.

                      Just so that you understand and just as I mentionned many times in this thread: It is a race part intended for a racecar due to the increased noise.

                      Take it or leave it.

                        Seriously. If you want it on a street car, that's your problem to deal with. Rip up your carpet and put in some really dense sound insulation.


                        These look like great parts. As soon as I fix my mashed in front end, I'll be purchasing a set.

                          The introduction price ends by Monday February 2nd. Seven sets already spoken for, three only available.

                          Thanks

                            Dammit! I can't do this now but I almost certainly will in the future. Just out of curiosity though, I plan on installing camber/toe adjusters and I have TMS aluminum mounts already, would you still recommend raising the subframe with the adjustability? I like your setup simply based on the fact that I'll be able to weld it all up and powdercoat the entire subframe and not have to think about it in the future but I'm wondering if I'll be fighting myself if I'm adjustable in the first place?

                              With your solid mounts and adjustable pick-up points, you are already in the right direction. Raising the subframe gives you a reduction in camber and toe if the car is lowered. Therefore, not requiring that much correction fro the eccentric adjusters.

                              But anyway, you'll be happy with Turner's solid mounts.
