would get them but just wasnt sure i would be able to live with them as they are sooo hard and the car will be my everyday driver.

waiting on some pics this weekend of a stock mount. if i dont get any by sunday night im ordering the powerflex ones.

do you just cut the rubber section out and put the new ones in, or do you press the centre out that holds the rubber (assuming thats how it works)?

 

[weakboy2]

its tricky to press them, as the metal ring is so thin, i just cut the rubber middle out (most of them fell out ) then used a hacksaw (removed blade, put it through the centre of the mount) and cut a line into the metal outer, then just chiseled it apart. Taps out easy then. The new ones just push in and then you slide the metal inner through and job done!

Really simple job

So did you find it make shifting gear easier?

The engine barely moves when shifting....its so much better!

has any1 tried fittin these wit the stock fitted lsd? i would have thought tht the bush would b the same but the bracket would b differant i mayb wrong tho.

 

[Gtstu]

Would also like to know this.

 

[y3Lo]

pretty sure they WONT fit with stock LSD, it's just the gearbox mount thats different.

my bushes have been fitted a week now, and im noticing the rattling a lot less now

 

[GlanzaV196]

i no the mount is differant but iam sure the bush inside the mount would b the same?

 

[weakboy2]

No its not, ppl have tried and its totally different.

My ep85 has these mounts fitted except the gearbox one as the previous owner didnt know if it would fit or not. the car idles a bit low and it makes my keys rattle quite a bit on tick over lol. im sure once the idle is adjusted a little bit it will be fine.

Im going to try and swap engine mounts to see if i can get th bushes to work with my factory lsd box.

Thw ones with the factory diff, has a bigger rear engine mount (something like 9mm bigger)

 

[dac69er]

i made my own poly mount for £7
had enough stuff to do all 3 if i wanted.

will let you know how they get on when they have dried fully.

you mean on my £7 mounts? well ive only done about 1 mile with them fitted. seem ok but the car has hardly moved as it has no tax, mot or insurance.

will let you know how well they last after a few 1000 miles

 

[weakboy2]

well after doing about 500 miles with these mounts, i would say they are a bit harsh for most ppl, they are ideal for me as my car is a track orientated car, but at certain revs i can feel vibration through the stock seat! (good for the ladies LOL).
