As the title and description says... anyone looked at their swap lately and seen if its titled/leaning a bit from driver side(higher) to passenger side(lower)?
I know it leans from front to back (toward the firewall). But I talked to another (AT200) 3s swapper who did it from a gt4 clip and he reported the same thing.

Info? thanks for any answers. Curious if its a difference in the ST..

it really shouldn't. the ST is supposed to use the same holes for the motor mount on the timing belt side.

i noticed this a little bit on my swap also. Been fine for almost 20k miles now



purplegt4- yea i know but maybe the frame is a little bit different? idt so, but its just curious

and thanks for the info Stambo. I am curious if we have something extra or not enough on one side or the other? i'm not even sure mine was like this till after returning from the shop it went to for a bit. i'll check pics.
more info would be much appreciated.
