That picture was from a Drivers education event last month. I hang out with the Alabama PCA club and the Alabama BMW club to help get as much track time as I can.Originally Posted by markmdz89hatch
My co Pilot: This's guy is a Spec Mini pro driver I met through some guys at the Al PCA club. I had him ride with me all day and I rode with him in his mini getting a few pointers from a fellow FWD track driver.

That's looking good! Where did you get your poly bushings and what are the dimensions of them?
so let me get this straight.. if i call the company, and say.. i need to buy b-series mounts for the 86-89 accord, and they will send me some?
one day I'll return.
you would be the first to know
but ya gota try
ohh dang! the 3g might have some hope..
one day I'll return.
That's what I was told directly from the coordinator of the production of these mounts (at Innovative). I also spoke directly to the owner of the shop that Innovative was leaning on to do the R&D/test-fit for these mounts, and he's confident they'll work well for us. ...and for reference, he's doing a B20 block/B16 head built for a customer's car (a 3G) that he's using as the test-bed for the fitment of these mounts.

OK i will throw up the mounts and pictures but this is about the innovative mounts and not mine... lol I know people will have questions opinions and advice but lets save it for the build thread that will be going up today or tomorrow.
The mounts were made from 1986 toyota corolla rear end links. I had a buddy with a spare set so I cut them up and ordered TRD 85a press fit poly bushings. Every mount Is made out of 1/8th inch plate steel. They are not finished yet as i need to trim the fat off them, sandblast and powdercoat and press in the bushings.

front mount?

Ah yes I forgot to include the explanation of why its missing. I do plan on running a 4th mount. But I am not going to make it until I have made my new radius rod setup and have my radiator, intercooler, turbo manifold, turbo and downpipe in there for mochup. I hate making things 3 and 4 times so I will just wait and build it later.
