V6 swap in EK chassis done! (J32 swap)
the factory rear torque mount broke, all of my mounts held up fine. But as far as the engine falling out... not hardly... it just looks low

Im confused, Why wont the OP post pictures of everything stated in this paragraph from august 2009?
"Thanks to everyone for the support and complements on this swap. This is a first documented EK J-series swap with power steering and soon to have A/C(according to Hasport and API?). The mounts are completely custom, with plenty of hood clearance and ground clearance unlike other mounts in EG’S. Placement of the engine is tight but leaves plenty of room for the a/c compressor or rear mounted turbo??? The engine angle is as close to 90 degrees with respect with the chassis as possible leaving a max CV axle angle at 10 degrees unlike 20+ degrees with other mounts in EG’s. The car runs and drives awesome with a deep V6 growl and shifting the 6 speed is ultra smooth. More pics and a video to follow!"
If it is because you dont what anybody to see the mounts then just photoshop them out of the pictures. You make this thread, then post some crappy pictures. This thread =
without pictures to prove everything posted in that paragraph. Is nobody giving the OP shit about it cause he is a mod?
