ok complete.



Here is a mini write up.



The first step is to prop up the car as high as you can on jack stands both for the front and rear of the car. The next step is to undo two screws that bolt the two tranny bushigns to the tranny craddle. This will allow the engine/tranny to be moved up and down later on.



2nd step: Remove your strut tower bar! REMEMBER TO DO THIS! very very important! espeically if you have the racing beat brace.



3rd step is to undo both the driver and passenger side engine mount from the chassis of the car. Once they are undone, take a jack and a peice of wood and place that between the jack and the oil pan. Carefully jack the engine up. Try to focus on the driver side first, as this is the hardest mount to replace. It does not have the "J" notch on the frame rail for you to get play. Wiggle the mount out and replace with new one. Start to hread the nuts back on the driver side mounts on the engine and chassis side after lowering the jack.



Next step is to do the passenger side, this mount will most likely be broken like my. Once you have the engine up about two inches you can undo the aluminum brace that holds the engine to the mount.



There are three 17 mm bolts on the oil pan, don't worry no oil comes out. Loosen those, then loosen the other nut on the engine mount for the passenger side. This will allow you to take the passenger side mount out easier. Start to thread the nuts on the monuts with the brace and reinstall.



Lower the jack and ensure the engine sits flush on themounts and tighten eveyrthing down.



Expect this to take you 1/2 a days work. (i'm slow it takes me 1 hour to put the car onto jack stands).



Next step, install racing beat turbo back system.



=)

conclusions. Engine doesn't rock around like it used to. But i still ahve slop in the driveline. I think it's the diff mount.



BAH!

same prob here, tranny mounts are next on my list for solid replacements
