Motor mounts?????
« on: Feb 17, 2017, 05:09:38 pm »
I have a question what size motor mounts. Excessive manufacturing told me they have to custom fab me a set of 3.4mm spaced mounts because the ones they sent me the series 10 did not fit my mounts. what are the motor mount spacing for these cars?

Rich@xcessive should already know what you need. This swap has been done by some guy here in Portland. And by several Cressida, and first gen celica here in Portland. I've personally seen them at the xcessive compound.

Ya goofed up somewhere. (Slight chance xcessive goofed too). Where did you get those diagrams for the mounts? Did you use the blueprints that RWDfreak made?

Did you ever get an update from rich? My last email from him was 3/10. He said they were working on getting a third gen celica in the shop to mock up the engine and see why the mounts aren't working.

They shipped you new motor mounts or motor brackets? Haven't heard much from xxecesive in the past two weeks.

Same here. If 2fast got mounts in the mail, I'd bet they are the wrong like the ones we got.

He posted pics in his thread about his swap. I sent those pics to Guy, so he knows about them.
