Motor mounts - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

dsim93 · 05-18-2013, 05:24 PM

I'm picking up a 240 tomorrow and the only thing I really couldn't stand on it were the solid motor mounts, the owner didn't know which ones they were but the whole car would shake quite a bit at idle, my question is should I replace them with stock motor mounts or is there another company that makes a better one? It's going to be my daily so I don't want something too harsh, I've heard mixed reviews about the Nismo ones and mixed reviews about the Circuit Sports one too, any help/suggestions are greatly appreciated!

OEM or Nismo.

Nismos are great once they settle down.

Cusco or URAS mounts.

Ive recently fitted the Nismo mounts and there is very little vibration difference between the OEM rubber ones. On the circuit is where they really shine, really positive feedback when shifting up or down. At Fuji in the past I struggled to make clean shifts under a lot of g-force. While some may laugh its just a fact.

Aside from Nismo I would also suggest Cusco & Uras. I see there are some odd one-off makers doing polyurethane mounts. While the price point may seem great I still believe in sticking to brand name makers as they are the ones with good R&D.

Megan Racing ones also vibrate a lot at idle. I wish I had NISMO......

*fliprayzin240sx* · 05-19-2013, 02:31 PM

Nismo to me felt like brand new stock mounts...I like having a lil bit more solid like the URAS or Cusco.

Megan are fine really, replacing them is not high on my priority list but I'd trade for NISMO or new OEM any day since I do not track the 'vert. When I got them I did not know they were stiffer than most of the others.
