Hi all,

I was helping a mate change his engine mounts on his EK that he bought with a B18 conversion.

....any how, all the mounts were fine and line up...except the passenger lower torque mount (as can be seen in the pic).

The body& chassis is and looks very straight, and does the placement of the motor. Is it possible the previous owner used the wrong mount bracket? Or can I get a bracket that will line it up?

Any help would be great.

Its the lower passenger side engine mount, also known as a torque bracket.

does the Drivers side line up the same degree ? It's not too far off , but should be rectified if you are to run front torque mounts.

Can I suggest to run stiff engine mounts like innovative or has port- which removed the need for the front torque mounts.
Just remove them ! Saves a chunk of weight and looks cleaner.

they have probably used an eg/dc t bracket for the rear if that torque mount doest line up theres no way that either of the side mounts do either
