Motor Mounts

After looking at many different performance and after market motor mounts for the 240SX, I selected RevShift polyurethane motor mounts for my application. I wanted something strong, simple, and easier to install. The price wasn't bad either. These motor mounts are made in the U.S.A. by an injection molding process using high quality polyurethane. The grade 8 fasteners used with these mounts are approximatly 20 percent stronger than the fasteners used on stock Nissan mounts. Polyurethane mounts flex alot less than stock rubber mounts resulting in less power loss through the drivetrain. Revshift
