      tranny, yes. motor, no. Go with the green e28 5-Series motormounts. You just twist them 180 degrees and they fit perfectly. Expect A LOT more vibration at idle though.

            Still needs a bit of tuning.

            Running too rich ATM.

              As far as motor mounts, E28 535iS ones work fine. I ran those for a few years, but I got tired of the rattles & rough ride. They are a hell of a lot stiffer than the M42 stockers, though, but like 1/3 the price. You want the green ones (there are like 2 different types). You just need to cut off some little metal tabs, and maybe tap more threads onto the longer studs if you don't want to stack 20 washers.

              Props on the build! Sweet shit!

                    Beat a b16 hatch tonight.

                    Stayed pretty even until third when I pulled away ~3 car lengths, shut it down around 90.

                    This is from a stop.

                    Guy said he ran 14.2s in that car, made me feel pretty good, nice guy too.

                        mk3 VR6s are 12v, maybe mid 15s if they are stock.... mk4 vr6s later on became 24v and were about 190hp iirc....

                            I think I might pay to have my car dyno tuned, I'm not 100% happy with what I did.

                                Why aren't you happy with the turbo?
