Nismo Engine Mount Height Increase?

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:

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? 

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...?

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.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.

      Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.

      Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?

      1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
