Hey guys, my motor mounts aren't good and it's kinda expensive to fix it here in Brazil so I was thinking of using these engine dampers from ebay to minimize the car vibration. Has anyone ever tried this approach?

I have a nrg one on my car, it did help a little, but the main thing I noticed that helped out more than that was a set of energy suspension mount inserts for the lower 3 mounts on the car. They're not much more than that damper is, but they are a little more difficult to install. Can a mod please move this to general tech? I'd hate for Foo to see and delete it lol.

I have the NRG damper too. It was really soft when I got it and it felt like it wasnt even on the car. I took it apart and must have put it in to where its the hardest haha cause now I can really tell. Helps alot for off the line and between shifts.

Tks guys, sorry about the wrong place....I gonna try this damper!

The damper is just a band-aid. Fix it right. You will be much happier you did.

urethane inserts

if you are some mech skilled should be a 7 from 1-10 scale

I dunno about the damper, but using the 3m insert in the mounts works, but they end up looking like shit regardless of how nice it goes on. I would have done the inserts instead.

Bandaid, save the time and money and buy inserts or new mount kit

 

[horny_devil]

do u know how hard it is to get a mount kit over here? ive tried about 5 different places in the states and had no replies back from them. its starting to piss me off. i got a hold of an engine damper for next to nothing so im gonna run with that first.

now back to my origional question.

i would like a pic of the bracket that attaches to the mount as i believe my one is the wrong one

 

[Speedjunky01]

Go for an Ingalls "Stiffy" one. I've heard that they're better than NRG dampers.

 

[horny_devil]

in those pics the NRG beackets have been modded and the ingalls ones have different brackets to what i got. i need a bracket like he ingalls one but i got a funny shaped one instead
