Aight. So. Got this super fresh NA ka24de dropped into the drift car on some brand new solid polyurethane mounts.

How tight should they be tightened ? 20 ft lbs, 40 ft lbs?
What??

Really dont want to over tighten them and have them split.

-Thanks for any input here.

Any quick advice ? What have you torqued your solid mounts to?

I don't know how much more space there is around a KA but on the SR there's no way to get a socket and torque wrench / ratchet on those fasteners. I just tighten them as much as I can with a combination wrench.

You cant blame them. The skinny pants wont let them get into a comfortable position and the sacred man bun cant touch the ground.

Did anybody else feel confused? Title says solid mounts but then the swegboi starts talking about poly
