Mate HAD to get one for his 180sx while in melb getting it tuned cos when it was on the dyno it was moving round too much, worked pretty, car was making 223rwkw so yeh id say it would help, im getting one cos the clearance between starter motor and steering shaft is minimal

These are those shock absorber looking things that connect from the drivers side strut tower to the engine. Just Jap sell em for about $70, but i also saw one at Advan yesterday for $399!

FYI the just Jap ones are not hydrolic, they are simply rubber inside...my mate bought one and was not impressed.

I was going to get one but they were the same price as stiff engine mounts so i went for them instead

RB engines I don't think flex nearly as much, and probably has something to do with the greater strength of the engine mounts and chasis in the skylines..

Haven't seen any aftermarket ones for RB's.. only CA/SR's..

silk road make them for skylines. i believe nengun and greenline sell them.

I went with nismo engine mounts and if you can get them cheaper I would go with them first.

Straight fit replacement and are much stronger than the stock ones.

I guess it all ends up with what you can get cheaper.

I just recieved some nismo engine and gearbox mounts for my R32 from Greenline today. $261 delivered.

Just Jap sell two engine mounts only (without gearbox mount) for $240.
