Will it sit the engine 10mm higher than std location?

Silvia guys report some issues with the SR20 sitting higher.

Anyone notice this on there R32 GTR or not really?

My concern is basically my new exhaust fitting exactly how it should.

Cheers.

yes, and yes. I can measure a nismo one if that helps but I noticed no difference

nah it's all good I'll soon find out lol.

I've already installed my engine with the Nismo mounts in just waiting for racepace twin 3 into 4 front pipe and since it merges to 4" I was just curious if it's going to fit after reading the Silvia guys comments.

Do you notice the difference with engine movement and gearbox as I fit all 3 of them.

Does it really help pulling gears at RPM

I have noticed absolutely no issue with the nismo mounts, nor before I had them. nor in my stagea which has standard mounts.

in the end I just went the nismo ones because they cost about the same, and why not try "upgraded"

I suspect that unless the current mounts are broken you won't notice a difference either

I'm just wrapping up a CD009 install on an R32 and wanted to drop the front of my engine a tad to get a better driveshaft angle. I thought I'd chime in on this post with conclusive info as I have both new OEM and Nismo R32 mounts. 11220-02U03 vs 11220-RS585.

I'm confirming without a doubt that they are both the exact same height and both have the same "Squish" when installed. I ended up notching my engine mounts like the RB30 guys do. The height difference people see must just be the difference between settled old mounts and new fresh mounts. 

Cheers.

Correct. Nismo mounts are OEM mounts with Nismo tax.

They do come in a nicer box that looks great sitting on the shelf though.  Worth it for that.......

Same thing with the Nismo gearbox crossmember mount. I broke one and bought a Nismo one. They are IDENTICAL. I've now mixed it up with the other standard ones I have, as even the casting part number in the rubber is the same, so I don't know if I'm using a Nismo one or not now !

Then they end up like this.

Junk. 

Went to the same place as the twins, the bin.

Lol always the exhaust side. I wrapped mine with gold reflective tape to see if it gives it a few extra years.

I noticed the Nismo engine mounts had the OEM part number in the rubber but I presumed this was due to Nissan using the same mold for both but with a harder rubber for the Nismo. I didn't see the need in creating two identical molds.

You gents think they are in fact identical parts ? It did cross my mind as a possibility...

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
