No Crust Racing Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Nismo Engine Mount Height Increase? What sort of height increase are we talking in an R34 GT-R and what other options are there that don't increase the height?

Duncan Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Nismo engine mounts are identical to standard engine mounts in size. Apparently they are a little harder but I've never noticed the difference Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/467934-nismo-engine-mount-height-increase/#findComment-7794445 Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Crust Racing Posted November 28, 2016 Author Share Posted November 28, 2016 Every listing for them states it, a height increase of "several millimetres".

89CAL Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 (edited) Is a height increase likely to be an issue? I never noticed much of a difference with mine. I think I even held them up back to back with stock and couldnt really see a difference. If they are harder there may be a little less 'squish' with the weight of the engine but nothing crazy I would imagine. The top of my engine is quite low because of the front facing plenum but if it helps: Edited November 28, 2016 by 89CAL Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/467934-nismo-engine-mount-height-increase/#findComment-7794466 Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW my R34 GT-T Nismo mounts didn't seem to make any difference to where the engine is sitting. I would have thought there might be a couple of mm difference in just the OEM mounts being squished & worn out over 15+ years...?

No Crust Racing Posted November 28, 2016 Author Share Posted November 28, 2016 Issue would stem from what potentially happens with intake pipes as I replaced the standard suction pipes with kts suction pipes and have a jsai pod enclosure which barely clears the z tune style bonnet.

No Crust Racing Posted February 16, 2017 Author Share Posted February 16, 2017 Finished this install, height difference is very minimal. Only noticeable when trying to install them and you need that extra mm or 2 of clearance to get them in.
