FTO AUSTRALIA

Unless your making 200+ kws, I wouldn't bother.

If you're tip, just put in manual ones... new manual ones.

im driving 1997 GPX manual.

im not there yet, but is aiming towards it.

Hi Bennoz,
camskill asking for around A$158.40 excluding postage, which should be around $20. is the price right?

any idea why the front mount costs almost 3x more than the rear?

do i have to change both front and rear at the same time? the front look ok at the moment.

what about the two side mounts? they are looking ok at the moment too.

Where'd you get that price from? The auto one me thinks...

All's you need is these 2. Total of 107 quidm, or about $187 bucks Aus.

The front one is substantially larger than the rear, hence the price difference. Always do both at the same time.

the price i got is for manual. got from the exact pages you referred. i just add them up, minus vat then convert to AUD.

you think thats the best price we can get?

Huh? Why is that, are the manual ones stronger?

I need to do all mine too. I have been putting it off for 2 years now. I think I should get some

Depends...lol

How fked are your old ones? If they've been shot for a long time, the top 2 mounts can sag... making the crossmember bolts a bastard to locate.

nah I dont think they are too bad. Just get a bit of vibration through them.

I need a breaker bar! cant get the 4x bolts moved! also what kindof torque is required to bolt them back?

Rattle gun torque!

as tight as you can pull the damm ratchet tight

ok front and rear mounts replaced. still have the clunking noise. could not pin point where it comes from.
I noticed my side engine mount shows some tear. where do i buy it?

Ok, for those of you that missed the NSW section post, we've discovered that all Mitsi engine mounts are replaceable inserts.

I've just done 2 for Lawso. Purchased from http://www.meek.com.au as they are the same as certain Evo mounts.
These are the lower ones, not yet done the top mounts (timing belt & gearbox end) but apparently they are also do-able inserts.
Apparently these are also available through Ralliart NZ, but since Ralliart is about to become extinct in the Asia Pac region, get in
fast. Meek can order in as many as they can get their hands on, but they wont last forever, so if you need them, get them now.
They're certainly the right price @ $63.60 for the front , $40.70 for the rear. As opposed to over $200 per mount from Mitsi Aus.

*Just keep in mind, these are inserts only, not whole mounts. You will need to hydraulically press your old ones out of your mounts
and press these new inserts in*

Im contemplating getting a busted set of mounts so I can press them in for people that order them, on an exchange basis.
Ie, you order them if you need them, get them to me, I'll press them into my spare mounts & ship them to you - you ship me
your old mounts etc. Otherwise, just get your local mechanic to do them for you

Front: (Same as Evo 4 through 9 models)
http://www.meek.com.au/index.php?act=vi ... ductId=250
Ralliart part number: RA19718K1



Rear: (Same as Evo 1 through 3 models)
http://www.meek.com.au/index.php?act=vi ... ductId=256
Ralliart part number: RA309269K2



Couple of shots of me pressing them in:

WIN!

but wouldnt it be easier (ie labour/part cost) just to get new jobbies???

Unfortunately no, the only place you can get whole units from is Mitsubishi *wallet shudders*

Or from Japan.

hey guys just came across this diy looks interesting
