Only if the mounts are the same as the 6th gen celica.

I'm gonna be getting a 3s shortly. But i was just wanting to know how much they are going for and if they are still getting made?
Okay I don't know if it was already posted, but I really need to know. Is there motor mounts available for the ST model celica? I've been noticing this post for a while, but wasn't too sure since it says that it fits on GT models.
yes, i have a set installed on my ST. i had ordered originally for the GT but they fit on both. But specify it to kirksosaurus. They are a great mod for the money.

Can you feel more of the engine vibration when at idle?

I know I can definatley feel more vibration... my steering wheel makes a rattling noise because of the vibration, but it goes away as soon as the RPMs go up like 1-200. it's worth it though. biggrin.gif

i can hear my glove box make some noises from time to time. since your car is now more connected to the motor, small things here and there might vibrate a little. its really not that big of a deal tho, and well worth the benefits you get from poly mounts.

instructions are in one of the replys to this thread. I had a really hard time getting the mounts out, and then an even harder time getting them back in. but some people on here claim that it's a 1-2 hour job. I eventually had to cut the two bolts off the bottom of the rear mount, then weld nuts in their place so that bolts could come up through the crossmember rather than down through it.

i just did it in an afternoon....

Teh Celica sleeps for Winter '06. Suspension overhaul begins........
took me about 2-3 hours i think, front mount was incredibly simple, rear one kicked my a$$ but i also had the car on a lift which made it a lot easier
Will the kirk inserts for the 6gc GT work with an st205 rear insulator?

I'm running the GT front insulator but an ST205 rear insulator since I have an e153.. so everything lines up properly...

I can't quite recall from memory but i THINK the rear mounts are the same between the GT and the st205.. rubber wise... Anyone know?

87 4runner DLX 22re, 5spd, 4.30gr, 4" lift, 30" tires, HID w/ Projectors, 6spkr + sub, custom exhaust, 94 celica leather seats, SR5 gauge cluster and clinometer. Future engine swap... possibly a 2jzge.
Yep, Have some ready to ship.

Just send some monies via paypal....

Can't wait to put these bad boys in with my new stage 2 clutch and 11.5 lbs flywheel... *excited*
So I got the mounts installed along with a brand new Excedy stage 2 clutch and all I have to say is WOW! Its like a new car! It handles like a dream and has so much more power to the ground. HIGHLY recommend them. I could see that some people don't like the vibration, but I LOVE IT! then again, I love my exhaust which is very loud anyways.

Basically, if you want the handling and don't mind the vibration, its worth it.

P.S. Installation was fool proof. Super easy when you changed your cutch.

a while back, i contaced a guy that sells motor mount inserts on mr2oc, about making some for our 6th gens. i figured it would be a great upgrade for anyone who has a gt or a swap. i got the first set of inserts a few weeks ago and instaled them this past weekend. they fit great and a nice upgrade over the stock mounts. you notice a lot more throttle response, smoother clutch engagement, as well as shifting, and you feel more connected with the engine. it should also greatly reduce wheel hop and help with traction becuase the motor wont rock back and forth as much as it does with the stock mounts. the other cool thing is that they insert over your existing mounts, so if for some reason you ever want to take them out, you can.

here is a pic of them installed on my car.

finally... here is a pic of the rear motor mount that i filled myself about 1yr ago. it worked well at first, but as you can see it didnt last long

last but not least, there is a really awesome Video review that an mr2 ower made about the mounts. i have to say that i pretty much agree with everything he said about them in the video. the install is a little bit different on our car then the mr2, but anyone with some basic tools can do the job. took me about 1-2hrs to do the whole thing.

link to the site/person that made these and will be selling them. all sales questions should be emailed to kirk:
