I've been looking at several different options for motor mounts. We've
all read about the failing Noltec Polyester mounts tearing apart and or
melting, the ford option seems like a not so good idea since it lifts the
engine higher(and requires a little work to fit), and the OEM are expensive and tear apart as well. Solids are pretty much a permanent indestructible option, but also sends engine vibrations throughout the
car. I haven't heard much or anything about Polyurethane mounts for
the Z though. For instance, UPG Racing sells a Polyurethane motor
mount for the Z32 and states that "Lifetime guarantee! If anything ever
happens to these mounts you can send them to UGP Racing and they will
be replaced free of charge."
They just so happen to be selling their product for ~$80 for a set in their
eBay store, nearly half of what they sell on their site.
So my questions are, would polyurethane be any better than polyester?
Does anyone here have any experience with the UPG mounts?
I'm thinking that since that company will send a new set of mounts for
free if anything happens to the originals, that it's worth a shot, UNLESS
there is any word that the UPG Polyurethane are just as bad as the
Noltec Polyester. In that case, I would seriously consider the solid
mounts.
