Manual trans mounts PICS

i am in need of a few pictures of second gen VG30e manual transmission mounts for my swap. i dont have a second gen maxima but im using a transmission from one and will likely have to make mounts for it so if i could see pics of the way the stock stuff works that would help me design ones much more easily.

even just a picture of the front of the transmission so i can use a few points to locate my engine and transmission and get everything level and square would be awesome.

heres my build thread, https://maxima.org/forums/3rd-genera...ed-stanza.html

its a 91 stanza, on the diagram you sent it still looks like there are 2 trans mounts. there is nowhere to bolt a mount directly to the top of my trans, the holes are on the front and back of it so im pretty sure there are 2. i might be wrong tho

well they both are a RS5F50A transmission so the mounts might be the same, that would be the first thing I would check, if they both have the same case and just different bell housings you should be able to just bolt the factory mounts in the same spot and be good to go. I don't remember but yea there could be a front and rear mount it's been a long time since I did the clutch in mine.....

i would really appreciate it. i am probably going to level everything out and at least get started putting the pieces together for the mount but knowing where the trans is oriented in the original car would help me out a lot.
