hey everybody,
i'm a 5th gen owner currently swapping in a st215 motor and i had an issue with my passenger side motor mount. this old thread i found perfectly describes my problem, http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=68361 this is my current thread on celicatech. http://www.celicatech.com/forums/showthrea...72#post30251672 as you can see in this picture of where a 6th gen mounts  and a picture of where my 5th gen mounts. the chassis is a little different but because of this i can't use a 6th gen mount  do you guys know of anything i can do? or do i need to have a custom motor mount made? |

Seems like celicatech does not have an answer and i cant beleive they cant help you. Most forums are dying. Unless someone has done it before. It will be hard to get an answer here.
However i will tell you the way your engine mounts in your car is very much like the mr2 5sfe mounts. You are trying to use the mount of the 185 with the engine bracket of the 215. What happened to the original bracket that goes with the mount. Can you not bolt that bracket to the engine -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years...

If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

you're right though. MR2 5sfe does look a little strighter
