Solid engine mount.

[cb10]

My 182 has a solid engine mount on. It came with the car and although it looks really good i do wonder if i actually benefit anything from it? I dont track the car and it doesn't have the solid gearbox mount so all i seem to gain is some vibration!!! Haha. Not been in one with a standard mount so cant really compare but just wondered if it would make sense to replace with a new standard item and sell this on? Any advice would be great cheers?

If you're driving it on the road, get it swapped for standard and make yourself some money back.

Which mount?

And are you sure it's 'solid' and not just uprated?

 

[Budgie]

Also. Might well have an uprated gearbox one, you just can't see it unless you remove the battery.

i think its classed as solid mate. Think the guy said he got it from k tec and it was made by vibra technics or something???

I want that one, swap for a standard one

If you go on ktec site it looks just like the rs race engine mount but my base plate isnt red its polished silver. Dont no if that helps as to solid or upgraded??

 

[cb10]

Anyone any idea what it is worth (roughly) if i decide to sell?

 

[Edges]

Can you post some pics of it?

If it's just the ally base plate it's just updated not solid, change it for a standard one if you want, I loved the vibratechnics mounts when I had my 182.

Can you post some pics of it?

Yeah will do some later.

I wouldn't remove it if I were you. Absolutely hated my 182 without them. The second 182 I had had both engine, gearbox and polybush dogbone. Was sooo much nicer. No rubbish lurching.

They are certainly good at what they do if you can put up with the extra vibration.

If it's the vibratecnics one I'd have it off you

cheers Adam, don't no why i couldn't do it stupid phone, had a look for any paperwork or receipt tonight but no joy. Pretty sure he said it was a vibra technics tho.

Does anyone no how much a new standard one is if i decide to sell this on? If there expensive might as well just keep it as it does look good and just put up with the bit of vibration it causes

cheers
