Broken Engine Mount

[l3vnd1]

Alrighty.

Bought those ebay ones and replaced both.

Omg Killed me to instal but did both sides.

It has reduced movement at low speeds in traffic with clutch engagement in and out. (you get less of that rocking feeling when throttle on/off)

One was not so bad, the other one was goooone!

For the driverside one I had to remove airbox and also the bracket connecting it to the transmission.

Passenger side was bolt on/off.

Not bad for $60 landed.

How urgent is a engine mount fix on a stock car? i heard some people with after market headers can have problems but is there any other reasons why it would be urgent?

If its one of the major mounts (big ones) I would say so.

You wouldnt want your engine and gearbox rocking back and forth - cant be good for anything.

Are there mugen rubber mounts for the DC2R?

I checked nengun - they seem to only make for the DC5R

Spoon does have a set for the DC2R. So does J's Racing.

Anybody recommend??? Im thinking about scrapping all 5 and putting a fresh set in.

Ps - This is for a daily drive so Im steering away from solid mounts. Maybe a stiffer rubber compound set.

i'm using dc2r as a daily as well and i'm thinking of getting the spoon ones off nengun they're abt 450 shipped, don't think there'd be a big diff with the J's racing ones they're 500 or so off nengun.
such an expensive fix =( i better be able to tell the difference lol tell me if you find a cheaper solution!
