moto -build torque tamer

Hi all
Has anyone fitted one of these to your car ? How good are they and is it easy to do

Yes yes and yes

Easy ish to do..

Only thing I'd say is look at the bracket on the sump.. If it's one of the early ones with just two blobs of weld it'll break

Either get someone with a welder to beef it up or buy a later type from Elise parts before fitting the poly bush kit

Even better again is..

Ideal for those with highly tuned K. Series engine set ups..

About 10 of us now with these engine mounts.. Much stronger than the stock mounts

Another take on the bottom mount

This should fit

Yup done this...easy to do and they are good.

One caveat...I can't remember if I ordered mine from Moto-build but....the first set I received had a big yellow bush..which was a floppy fit in the housing and I remonstrated with the supplier..who said that it would all be fine when I tightened it up..yeh right!...It wasn't and under pressure they supplied the proper fitting blue bush which was a hand press fit..

I don't know if that was a genuine mistake on their part but they did recover from it....just make sure the damn things fit in the housings and don't flop about like a floppy thing. No amount of tightening fixes that.. :broon:

Yep done it also. Got mine from motobuild. They only do the blue ones now. Does increase the amount of vibration from the engine to your bum though.

Yep, here's mine and how I did it.

Mine was a Motobuild one.

Damn! that's another mod I'm going to have to do this winter.

Yes I suspect that at least "Esie" could do with new bushes fitted in this mounting but it will just have to wait a while what with the other jobs planned and already booked. plus she is coming offthe road at teh end of the month for rest whilst some work is being carried out on her. The Blue Mpi will have to do for a while instead.
