    Default What engine mount is this??? need help

    ok.. i actually know which car this is from.. but the person who we bought the motor from kept one of the engine mounts.. fuck knows why.. but they did..

    so, please look at the pics and tell me what this engine mount is from..

    the reason i cant just call toyota or wreckers and order one given i already know what its from is coz what its from is fucking rare...

    the reason im not saying its from a xxxxxxx. is for 2 reasons.. 1 i dont want to confuse people.. and 2 i dont want 30 people jumping on and telling me.. "yup.. its definitely from a xxxxx"

    anyway here are the pics.. of the mount and crossmember it will sit on..

    drivers side mount (top view)


    bottom view


    side on view


    engine bracket bit of engine mount we need (note there is only one bolt hole, not 2 like the drivers side..)


    crossmember it will sit on..


    cheers in advance.. i need help quick..this conversion needs to be finished fast..

    They look to be the same as my GX81 mounts and rubbers. I take it these are the mounts from coFF33's 1G-GTE?

    The bottom part and heat shield bit is the same as any X8 mount, so you should be able to pinch them from a MX83 pretty easily.

    Since the MX83 rubbers arent the toughest of things, there is a mod that cseufert on the Cressida forums has come up with.

    He upgraded them to JZA80 Supra mounts which will suit your 1 bolt bottom and 1 bolt top configuration you are chasing.

    Parts needed
    2x 1998 Supra Engine Mount (12360-46111) ~$80ea trade
    2x M14 Nuts
    2x M14 Flat Washers
    2x M14 Spring Washers

    Tools you need:
    14mm Drill
    10mm Drill
    Appropriate tools


    Pics

    The Supra mount and X8 lower plate


    You need to open up the main hole to suit and also drill a locating hole since they dont match, and also trim down the main bolt.


    You need to trim the rubber agains the lip so it sits flush

    yeah.. theses are off coffs old 1g.. and they are gx81 mounts.. but im hoping they are also of something else...

    so the bottom part and heat shield are same as mx83??? for sure???

    sweet, that should make it easier..

    we arent really fussed about the strength of the mounts coz its going into a x70 cresta and will hardly get flogged... we just need the passenger side mount so we can drop the motor in...

    i suppose if all else fails we can just use the setup you mentioned above..

    only problem is the other side is still 2 bolt configuration.. so we could only upgrade one side in such a way???

    cheers for ya help.. rep coming your way..
