Ive read places that nismo mounts actually lift the engine up a little, and the Circuit Sports ones drop them.

Im looking for a set that will lift it a tad bit, but if i can avoid dropping the cash for nismo mounts, i would like to.
What about Megan racing? I cant seem to find any info on this about them. I've only browsed a little bit so i may just find it but i figured i would ask.

My issue really is that with the way everything is set up in my car, the turbo outlet touches the steering shaft, and my down pipe is a hair away from the frame rail so twisting the engine seems like it'll move the DP closer to the frame.

also, is it possible to clock the compressor and exhaust housing on the turbo to move it all in to fix any of this?

Just thinking out loud really. Thanks in advance to anyone with anything to say on it.

 

i would prob just shim it a little bit, easiest/cheapest way,just me though

 

how did you accomplish that?

 

Clock the turbo outlet where you want it and then you will more than likely have to cut and refab the down pipe to get everything were you want it comfortable.

 

well its an aftermarket outlet with a divided section for the wastegate that sticks out. I think that engine shifted in the mounts bringing the driver side down causing that section to touch. The DP is a 3" and seems to touch. I have had the front subframe out before so it may have gone in crooked.

well if i clock the outlet i have to clock the compressor. T25 wastegate mounts to the compressor housing. but i looks to me like clocking the turbo could solve both issues, while engine mounts could keep the outlet further from the steering shaft and keep the oil pan further from the ground.

 

Don't be a cheapass, buy the Nismo mounts. They don't raise the engine, they just bring it back to where it sat from the factory. Your 20yr old mounts have sagged.

Well the count is above 9000 so i almost have to do it lol.

just have to wait a couple weeks to do it. We'll see what happens.

thanks again guys.
