Motor mounts from ebay???
Motor mounts from ebay???
Mine are in bad shape. My rear mount is totally torn loose. They have individual mounts on there for as low as $40. Anyone know the quality of buying mounts off ebay? are they all the same?
I am going to save you the headache and financial burden with a piece of advice... don't get polyurethane motor mounts if you're installing them on your modified daily driver. The reason for this is quite simple if you think about it. Along with engine positioning, motor mounts perform the important function of dampening engine vibration, which a stiff mount will not accomplish. I hear people talk about polyurethane like its their only reasonable option for mounting, but thats usually the case for transmissions. The fact is a stiffer polyurethane mount just transfers more vibrations to the body than a rubber one. If isolating and nullifying annoying vibrations in your cabin and elsewhere doesnt bother you, or you just run your car on a track, go for polyurethane! But for that comfortable performance that a daily driver application calls for, shell out the dough for the OEM DE-K ones, I hear they perform extremely well. I haven't changed my mounts yet, but when I do, thats the route I'm taking. Good luck!
My ES mounts arn't overly harsh even in this cold weather.

motor mounts on ebay are just used ones probably from wrecked maximas...they are not new or specially made ones.
just buy the cheapest ones you can find and fill them with some poly...vibration is really not that much more. i did them to mine and dont notice any difference.

I filled my front and rear mounts and I regret the hell out of it. The car is more jerky now than ever. I have to make an absolutely perfect move with the clutch otherwise the car jerks like I don't know how to shift.
I want my old mounts back.

the things to look out for in ebay are those cheap imitations...and even some of those are fine.
plus in the motor mounts department...i have not seen any cheap imitations...the mounts ive seen being sold are geniune oem. they are not new most of the time but no such thing as "fake" maxima motor mounts on ebay.
^^ I think what cloud is saying is that no name parts off ebay are a joke. I would never get something off ebay without knowing the brand. I hate ebay lately since there are thousands of sellers working out of their basement. Seems like is becoming worse and worse every day. Actually you have to becarefull now from all the counter fit and/or the word "type" or "style" in the ad. A Greddy "style" bov is not a real Greddy, and mostlikely will be a waste of money.

dont try and criticize saying others dont have some IQ when you yourself failed to read each post. you even failed to realize that there is no such thing as ebay or generic motor mounts which was the initial point of this thread.
Alright 1st off, i never said Ebay makes Motor mounts or that there are Generic brands for motor mounts, obvious someone here has a reading disability, i stated
"i def. wouldnt go eBay for motor mounts/suspenion/wheels/ well practically anything..... quality should always come before price"
meaning i would not go to eBay to buy parts that can have Generic Brands,
ie. suspenion parts (coilovers,shocks,springs,bushings, etc.) 18" G35 style rims, fake apexi safc, etc...
i never stated I would never shop on eBay!

this is the first post you posted.
i have bolded the part that sticks out most.
you obviously meant that you dont like to buy anything on ebay including motor mounts.
end of discussion
ok so I was on ebay and I found some new ES motor mount bushings I was going to buy..then saw in the group deal section cattman was selling them for $10 less..SO I ordered them! They are the polyurethane inserts, Im pretty excited, I hope I like the ride!
