s14 Tilt SR20 to water level mount

Hi


Anyone know of some pre-made engine mounts that would make my sr20 be mounted in waterlevel between frontwheels?

Havent modified the primera engine mounts, but they fit my s14 with smaller mods and the engine and gearbox ended up tilting a little like in a normal s14 with sr20.


If not I'll just make som new mounts myself

Thanks in advice

It's designed like that by Nissan, why do you feel the need to move it? You aren't going to run into problems with it sitting like factory. However, if you do make it "level" your oil pan will hang down, your shifter will be rotated to the right side of the vehicle more and most of the down pipes available will hit the under carriage. Leave it alone.

Thanks for tips, I wouldn't if it was a normal car.

Rare sr20 engine in there, but everything is modified from its original stand even thought it originally was a beastly N/A engine.

My oil pan is custom, but might build it back to the original drysump if i feel like after som test rounds when the season starts again (going into winter here in Norway now )

Gearbox is a Tremec TKO600 with dogbox from liberty gears and the bellhousing is welded for "level" mount as I was thinking of that from the end.

Ah well next time add some specifics. Your original post is very vague. All mounts are typically the same from the right to left side. You'll have to modify/fab new metal brackets that bolt to the side of the engine to get the motor level. If done that way you can use off the shelf engine mounts made for the RWD SR.

Ok, yeah sorry man Might put up a build thread, I guess this is a pretty rare build so maybe the community here would like to hear about it.

i am quite sure the engines are never mounted level for a reason, and that usually is oil circulation and return in the head ... Why would you want it level ?
