EIP tuning solid front engine mount

you may want to think about poly bushing your crossmember now Gary if you havent already

 

Anyone else running these solid mounts?

CHECK YOUR STARTER BOLTS

Noticed a fair bit of engine shunt past couple of days, just checked and one of the starter bolts has fell out and the other two were loose

Must keep an eye on them in future

 

Solid engine mounts for you - I have a set of race-spec vibratechnics mounts on my Ibiza and last time we were at Cadwell, the intermediate and powersteering belts came off - initially thought it was a stone but actuallt the alternator had vibrated loose - its not the first time either - will check starter as well now.

Cheers

My BBM one is great no vibration and the starter has'nt fallen out yet!!

 

My VT`s been fine and the manifolds still in one piece! although mine`s the weedy 1.8

 

Thinking back I was eshhing along the A17 the other week and heard something clatter underneath the car, wondered WTF it was...

Must've been that starter bolt

 

At least it wasn`t the starter motor

 

Would've been the next thing

 

Didnt realise you ran a solid mount Gary. Does anyone know who makes a solid mount for the Mk2 VR6 conversion?

 

if you run one of those mounts on the front and standard ones on the back aren't they going to flew and snap something on the front?


I'm just a bit worried it'll do more harm than good.
