Andrew K Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Is there any difference between these 2 types of engine mounts? I've got these on my TT engine at The moment which I'm doing up, pics below. https://jza80.mkivsupra.net/imports/2013/02/22.jpg[/img]"] https://jza80.mkivsupra.net/imports/2013/02/23.jpg[/img]"] I've seen these on some other TT engines and wondered what the difference is? https://jza80.mkivsupra.net/imports/2013/02/24.jpg[/img]"] The mounts above are also of an N/A engine, is there a difference between N/A ones and TT ones? And which are best to use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 They look like brackets for either the later ones or, like mine, the TRD mounts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetrashcanman Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Is that the bottom brackets your on about? I believe (and I'm no expert) the bottom picture with the engine mounts in are from earlier supras, not sure about the top ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee P Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Top ones are facelift bottom ones are the early ones which you want to use as they are much better. It also means you can change to TRD mounts in the future and they will fit the brackets. NA and TT had the same engine mounts no difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOGIE Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 what is it that makes the facelift ones so bad?? Do they break easily? or not absorb vibrations easily? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 The facelifts don't exactly 'break' but do wear quicker and cause in car vibrations the older ones seem to be tougher and are more fit and forget than the facelifts (although the facelifts have good 7+ years in them I think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
