A few pics of the mounts. Alot of people questioning.

i just went from 6 to midnight

I'd SERIOUSLY consider, nay, without question I'd reinforce the motor mount "ears" on the stock subframe.

Otherwise, I'm interested to see the progress.

:?

[caliGreen]

dang. talk about DAMAGE! that is a wild beast

[M-technik-3]

:?

Scary idea for an engine mount with such high amount of Torque.

[SamE30e]

I would have welded the mounts to the frame rails. With the subframe being bolted to the mount. Or made new mounting arms.

Other then that. Wicked.

[Good & Tight]

Nice project, looks like it fits in pretty easy. And like everyone else has mentioned the mounts will fail. What does the other mount look like?

[HI-BOOST]

Hey thanks for the heads up guys, I havent been able to get a good shot at the other mount but is welded the same way with a bolt going across like this one.

So even though the bolt passed through the mount, that square metal (inside re enforced so it doesn't collapse) and the sub frame I may be looking at disaster?

I will reconsider those mounts then.

in short yes. you need something really solid with those hp/tq goals

Yea, although i trust my mechanic I really think his top notch I will consult this with him and see if we can secure that motor on there better. Ill keep posting pictures as i go.

Another 2jz E30, good to see. We have a few here in Aus and know of a few others around the globe.

Looking good but as everyone else has mentioned, those mounts wont last. Go overkil on the mounts IMO

[einstein57]

e30 subframes are pretty weak at the motor mounts and break under heavy use with the m20. AKG makes a ready to weld in reinforcement kit.

fucking SICK! i love 2jz's, be sure to post up some vids, as well as to some specs on the install!
