engine mounts
If you see an MR2 with a raised engine cover, the bottom line is it's probably faster than your car.
Re: engine mounts
What do you mean exactly by UK mounts? the Turbo wasn't sold in the UK so are they NA mounts?

Re: engine mounts

Re: engine mounts
Given that the part numbers are different I doubt it as they are a different part. Were Turbo mounts not available?
Try pricing parts on here

can be much cheaper than direct from Toyota.

reckons the NA mounts are all the same as Turbo with exception of the front (firewall?) one

Re: engine mounts
unfort they dont list this part number, and thanks for the info on bottom link
looks like a trip to toyota and a wait for delivery.
dont want extra vibration hence want to stick to oem

Re: engine mounts
Why do you think your mounts need replacing are you suffering excess movement?

Re: engine mounts
Poly bush them and save you £100's
Re: engine mounts
Only thing to take into account with the poly bushes is that they are much stiffer than the standard so this does apply some engine vibration to the cockpit.

Re: engine mounts
I went for Powerflex engine mounts, and honestly there may well be slightly more vibration but it certainly isn't noticeable when you're driving.
Considering the price gap surely OEM aren't worth it?
Also there are three different sizes for the front mount (73mm, 79mm, 83.5mm), the rear is the same.

Re: engine mounts
I would say 100% go with the poly mounts, It was more just a fair warning.
