not the NRG suspensions inserts, but the actual prothane kit that does all 4 mounts.
on the timing belt side mount, the stock hole is in the middle, the holes in the prothane inserts are off-center. do i have ones for the GST/GSX? will these work? if these will work, how do you remove the stock insert in the mounts on sides?
help!

do to the way the two engines are mounted i do not believe any motor mounts designed for a 4G63 would work in conjunction with a 420A. Might want to check with some of the big dogs on that but as far as i have heard they are not similiar. (hope that is what you are asking)

The rubber in the side mounts can either be pressed out or burned out. I like fire, so I would burn them out. The 2G-T mounts have the same part numbers as the 2GNT, so I am sure that they could be used. Just make sure that the sleeve in the mount on the timing belt side fits properly in the hole in the prothane mount before you start burning! Let me know how they work out... -=B-=

Yeah with a lot of force they can be pushed out... unless they are old and really beat up thn they can fall apart...
I know Juan had the Prothanes, but I'm not sure if it was front and rear or all four. He hate the vibration and got rid of them. But he's out of town to ask any questions of anyway...
Good luck.

thanks guys. i bought Juans old ones from him. he only used the front and rear ones. His were from an older style kit where the side mounts had the bolt hole placed off-center, thus making them not usable. I called prothane and they are sending me the new correctly holed ones for free!!! Gota love free-bes!
