stock motor mount limits?

[Cya]

I was wondering if anyone knows the general limitations of the 89+ motor mounts?

 

[annoyingrob]

I started ripping mine apart around 400whp.

 

[GrimJack]

I started a bit before that. Solid mounts are your friend.

 

[chevyeater]

I'd say about 231 crank hp. Mine broke with 232 crank hp.

Looks like another part I need to add to my startup list!

I just got the 93-98 Supra Motor mounts. There is an extra placement nipple (aluminium) that needs be to shaved off. They are encased in metal and seem much sturdier than the 89-92 mounts. They are the same size and fit the same.

They can be found at a good price from the Toyota Dealers on Supra Forums.

I have the same set at 53$ a peice its a steal I currently have solids and hate them!

 

[GrimJack]

Really? I currently have solids and I think they are awesome!

 

[lintlars]

I have one with solids and one with 89 mounts and the solid car feels cheap all engine vibrations can be felt just not my thing some people lovem I personally hate them.

Lol ..... sounds like something is wrong. My car feels very solid no vibrations.

[giterboosted]

[GrimJack]

Err... what do you want to know about the Pre'89?

 

[MK3Brent]

IMO they're a better mount.

just do this......

used 2 small strips of 1/4 inch steel plate to fill the gap from the mounting plate to the metal surround. Welded it up solid, should be good for anything and only cost me 10 minutes and a small amount of steel i already had laying around.

 

[bountykilla0118]

I am early 89 with the solid mounts ..... no complaints even when they were lose.

I just bought the MKIV mounts. They are made a lot better and cost a little over $100 for the set vs $100 per mount for the MK3 mounts.

that would be a case of function ahead of form.
