The US Drivers side mount will be silver if it's aluminum.. It will be a dark gray if it's the Cast steel mount...



You will have a very slight vibration that you won't even really notice after a few weeks of driving it. Also since you have the tranny brace you will get rid of pretty much any of the clunking noise since the engine will not be trying to tork agains the solid tranny brace. One thing thats sweet is if your engine has a lot of tork it will slightly rock the car when you rev the engine..

lol.. I wish I sold that much... actually.. I don't think I could keep up if I sold any more than I do now... Kinda hard to make all this stuff when I work a 7:30-4:30 day job.. The reason I'm kicking my self in the *** to do all this right now to help fund my trip to the tokyo autosalon... I bought a camera the other day, so look for a video somtime the following week after I get back.. Expect lots of Nearly Naked Hotties in the vid sitting on Riced out Crap.. and I'm going to try to make a vid just on the Rotorys that are there as well..

How well do these wear? I know I sound stupid... Will they cause anything else to wear prematurely? Thanks. I'm interested!

the mounts themselves shouldn't wear at all because they won't move once bolted in to place and since the engine moves with the body of the car now it should decrease wear of any other parts the run between the engine and body such as intercooler pipes etc.. Also if you have a single turbo etc that sits close to the frame rail it will help keep it from rubbing etc...

The bracket like the one above that I painted red should both be dark grey if it's steel. The same color as the cast steel front, intermediate and rear plates on the engine.



If it's silver like the altenator in color then it's the aluminum one...
