Paul372 Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 Wasn't to hard of a job, one side was abit fiddey and took me most of the day as I've never change engine mounts on a supra before, but it wasn't a bad job to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOGIE Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 where did you buy them from mate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I imagine the hard side, was the turbo side? Can you enlighten us as to how, with the top and bottom mounts undone, you then gained the clearance to remove them and refit the TRD ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I am also interested in more information on this, I take it you need to lift the engine to change the engine mounts? Any additional noise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I'm interested too as on an old TT I did a passenger side one and took the whole engine block bracket off as I couldn't see/find a way of lifting the engine sufficiently (got nervous!). The top and bottom thread sections are quite some length and so unless I'm missing something the clearance required is quite large... Getting the whole bracket of the turbo side looks almost impossible, hence my curiosity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 The only thing we took off was the upper rad cowl to let the fan blade go a bit higher than the top of the cowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
