Get mounted!

Are your engine mounts wearing out or broken? When factory engine mounts wear out, or on higher horsepower vehicles, engine torque causes the engine to move excessively, and place extra load on the exhaust system, hangars, transmission and transmission mounts. This can cause unnecessary vibrations, and can agitate welds to break.Reinforcing the engine mounts can improve shift feel and help prevent the shifter from jumping out of gear, or grinding on shifts. Prevents excessive movement from engine torque. These are very rugged engine mounts and will firmly secure the motor to the engine cradle, while absorbing engine torque

Kazama Auto SPL Engine Mount installs on the Toyota Soarer JZZ30 and Toyota Supra JZA80.  These motor mounts are compatible with 1JZ-GTE, 2JZ-GE, and 2JZ-GTE motors. For 1992 – 2000 Lexus SC300 / Toyota SoarerFor 1993 – 1998 Toyota Supra**PLEASE NOTE**There is a small difference between Pre-95 and Post 95 engine mounts.  Please specify the engine year that you will require. http://www.more-japan.com/kazama-auto-jzz30-soarer-jza80-supra-spl-engine-mounts.html

Kazama Auto SPL Engine Mount installs on all model Nissan 240SX, S13, S14 and S15. Prevents excessive movement from engine torque. When factory engine mounts wear out, or on higher horsepower vehicles, engine torque causes the engine to move excessively, and place extra load on the transmission and transmission mount. The Nissan 240SX S-chassis is notorious for excessive shifter movement. Reinforcing the engine mounts can improve shift feel and help prevent the shifter from jumping out of gear, or grinding on shifts. Unlike other engine mounts which raise the engine and can prevent the use of a tower bar, the Kazama Auto SPL mounts lower the engine slightly. http://www.more-japan.com/kazama-auto-s13-s14-s15-spl-engine-mounts.html

Chop it up!

Throwback Thursday. Remember when 9 seconds for an import was like first stepping on the moon?  The iconic  Tanabe/Signal Auto’s Chopped Civic achieved such a feat by  beating most front wheel drive drag cars and immortalizing it in import drag racing history. The Chop Top Civic #1 ran a best of 9.97 sec. 1/4 mile. While the sibling Chop Top #2 ran a best of 9.74 sec. 1/4 mile.
