        Oh wow I just realized you said you were gonna re-drill style 5's with a drill press???

        A fill and drill is only a few hundred and thats *safer* but they even look sketchy like that

          I got the mounts from Ebay from condor speed shop, you can also get them from their web store, either both shipping from same shop lol

          I advise putting in weld in reinforcements for these solid motor mounts they can mess shit up lol

          And thanks alot bud hopefully will be on the road very soon

            330whp e30 with full condor mounts... No issues with needing to reinforce anything.

                  The only thing reinforced on my car is the rear sway bar mounts and the rear trailing arms... Which have nothing to do with the condor mounts. I run solid diff, sub frame, trailing arm, motor and tranny mounts..dedicated drift car, no issues at all.

                    For my own education here, don't people reinforce their stuff while doing condor to help stiffen up the chassis for racing?

                    I feel like it might happen that a lot of people reinforce stuff while doing condor mounts just because they are the ones that would be concerned with stiffness?

                        You could grab garagistics front sub frame reinforcement stuff also could reinforce the rear sub but really besides that and strut bars/cross brace there's not much you can do besides a roll cage.

                          the tenant forgot to ship it to me (3 hour drive) 2 weeks ago. I called her the day it arrived and asked her to ship it to me, how do you forget to ship your landlords shit...

                                Smash rear windshield?

                                I would consider smashing your rear windshield over that for sure...
