Doing an engine swap next month and getting parts all ready.

Should i put in new engine mounts as a good habit, or is this just overkill and should i just examine the old and make a judgement call?

I'll have 4 to pick from.

Also The stiffer mounts, are they a good thing? does it increase vibrations much?

thanks guys.

 

vibration is all personal prefrence and what the car is used for. ive ridden in a t2 with aluminum motor mounts and solid tranny mounts... my car has stock motor mounts but a solid tranny mount and it vibrated and was louds a ****. run stockers will they break

 

If they were stock mounts, I would replace them. Each one will most likely come off in two pieces. I am running Mazda comp mounts and they feel fine.

New mounts are always a good idea.
Mazda "comp" mounts are always a good idea since they are *cheaper* than the stock, softer mounts.
Go figure.

Where do I purchase said comp mounts?

 

I am running solid aluminum ones and they are a little vibrationey(-2sp?) at take off til about 2500rpm then I can't tell they are there. no noise either. but def replace them. I would go with the mazdatrix/mazdaspeed ones. they are like 35% stiffer than stock. good choice overall.

 

Mazdatrix

Either that or Rotary Performance. They gotem for 40 a piece but there suppose to be twice as good as the originals and noise free. Just a suggestion.

 

Or Racing Beat. I got my Mazda comps there. Love 'em.

 

We sell the Mazdaspeed mounts in a pair for $59.

 

CORKSPORT, At that price I'll have a pair as long as postage to the UK comes in under $20.


Do you guys accept Paypal?

 

We do accept paypal. I put them on the shipping scale and they weigh just under 4 lbs. They will ship first class post which is $29.60. It is the cheapest method available.

 

Hey I'm also after.

1x clutch Alinement tool
1x Oil drain pug
1x oil drain washer
1x gasket from uim to lim
1x termostate

Do you have all these for a S5 turbo 1990, If so how much, beacuse postage isn't much more to ship upto 20lb
