Hi guys,

I have a S14 i'm doing a 2jz swap. I've done everything and went to mount the motor in the car today. Upon mounting it I had a bit of an issue, or what I think may be an issue. I'm not sure If i'm using these mounts correct, the original owner of the mounts doesn't seem to know much either, and of course turbodave doesn't answer his phone or e-mail. Is the motor mounted correctly. If you have TDF engine mounts can you let me know I have a few other questions.

See how one of the mounts is perpendicular to the body, but the other one is inline with the body. Is that how its suppose to be?

Your passenger side mount looks a little bit crooked or maybe its not fully seated or something?.. I used to have TDF 2jz s14 motor and trans mounts like those but then when I rebuilt my motor I had the motor mounts redone to fit cusco motor mounts. Then I went v160 and switched to freed engineeering mounts with cusco motor mounts but I might have some old pics on my old laptop of the way my motor mounts used to sit.

I remember that my TDF mounts sat perfectly flush and fit really tight, they were like small pegs that went to sandwich plates like yours and the motor sat perfectly level and flush. People used to say that it looks like it belongs in there when I popped my hood and they were right, it fit really well and so if they are not fitting well then I would say that something is probably not right. You might be able to contact turbo dave through import atlanta, he is tough sometimes but shouldn't be impossible to get in touch with, keep trying. I'll let you know if I can find some pics.
