yup here they are 80 durometer track tested high quality poly urethane engine and trans mounts. There is a link in my sig that will take you to a multipage reveiw. Lots of people here are using my mounts.

They come with a one month warranty against possible defects in manufacturing. If you are using them in motorsports then like any other product sold for motorsports there is no warranty .


The studs do not run straight through the center of these mounts unlike other brands.
You will not get any excessive vibrations from these because of this.
You will get mounts that are better than Nismo and do not rattle your teeth.

The trans mount has exhaust hanger studs!! It also improves your shifting because your transmission no longer moves around under your shift lever like stock. Because of this you get a the effect of having a short shifter without really having one. The shift lever goes straight into its gates quickly and with less effort.



You need to use a heat shield or a heat wrap on the exhaust/turbo side of the engine.
I also should point out that the nuts that are provided are nyloc which means you do not need to torque them down hard. A hand wrench is fine for tightening them. Do not use an air ratchet or impact gun.

Here is a Brand New set of the Greens which are the latest design. $120 ea.( for trans or engine mounts only) or $230( engine and trans) for the set picked up. $136 ea. shipped or $249 shipped for the full set. my paypal is [email protected]

Heard lots of good things about these mounts and even owned a set, but the warranty makes me laugh a little. One month, but if used for "motorsport" there is no warranty? these are 'solid' motor mounts, what else would the purpose of these be? I would rethink the warranty, or just not offer one.

These mounts are made of polyurethane. Also, regarding the warranty, Dave has gone out of his way on many occasions to warranty a customer's mounts beyond the one month period within reason. If you don't follow his instructions and the mounts fail on you then you really have no argument. As for the actual mounts themselves, I have them on my daily driver and they are excellent. There is an increase in vibrations and noises but that's a given with any mounts that are stiffer than OEM. The performance of the mounts is well worth the increased cabin vibration(s).

Other purposes for solid mounts would be to replace shitty stock mounts, to get power to the ground better, to increase response...there's plenty of reasons.

Like most reputable sellers, they stand by their product. Like I said, I have owned them but the warranty was just funny to me.

You didn't think before you posted did you? 'get power to the ground better, to increase response' Correct me if I'm wrong, but that would be for 'motorsport' Should have left it with your first reason and thats it.

Again, I have personally used the mounts and they were effective, past the warranty, that I had no idea about at the time. I was just giving some friendly advice. No reason to make his for sale thread a battlefield for random people.

It would be for "motorsport" or for an "enthusiast" - which is what we all are. So whatever haha - not gonna argue.

Good luck with selling, these are great mounts.

Ok guys lets take the arguing somewhere else. Though I will respond to brn2slid. While you find my warranty amusing, I think you missed the point in the wording.

First off I am known for pretty damn good customer service. I try real hard in that department.

For clarifications sake the one month warranty period is because its a Warranty against possible manufacturing defects.
I do not think many of you have ever been in the manufacturing business.

While QC controls most problems occasionally there can be a slip up. This is what I warranty for.
Fact is, a problem in manufacturing should show up within the first month of ownership, usually sooner and definitely not longer.

Now with that out of the way, I do implicitly state instructions on using heat shields. Why you ask?

This is because on turbo cars and on the exhaust side their are extreme high temps. Extreme high temps can affect Polyurethane.
If a person does not use a heat shield then yes their warranty is void. Standard business practices here folks.

As far as no warranty for Motorsports goes?

No manufacturer of performance aftermarket parts, that I know of warranty their product for off road use or motorsports!( and I have been in this business for many years).

Its just not heard of because of the unknown factors and extremes that go on with off road use and motorsports.


i hope this helps make it clear for any that do not quite understand.

You don't have engine mounts for making the engine be mounted in "level" ?

They drop the engine about 1/2 inch from where the Nismo mounts place it. Most people prefer this because of strut brace clearance. It does not drop the engine oil pan below the crossmember if that is your concern.

No one has ever had a problem with this. In fact if a car is so slammed to the ground that the owner worried about the oil pan? Then they should be using a skid plate to protect it anyways.
