Default DGR Fabrication LSX Motor Mount Kits Now Available!!!

Redwood City, CA (October 17, 2009) DGR Fabrication announces their GM LSX Billet Motor Mount Kits for Lexus vehicles. The DGR Billet Mounts are machined from pure 6061 aluminum and do not require any chassis modifications upon installation.

The DGR GM LSX Motor Mount Kit comes complete with three aluminum mounts (2 engine mounts and transmission mount bracket), Urethane engine isolators for the engine and transmission, driveshaft adapter and complete installation instructions. As with all DGR Fabrication Products, the DGR Billet Motor Mount Kit has been tested and proven under actual race conditions and was designed and manufactured right here in North America. Optional parts include modified oil pan, oil pan modification, driveshaft, harness modification and ECU programming. Kits are for use with GM LSX engines with T56 manual transmissions. If you would like to use an automatic transmission we have a solution for that also.


If you are interested and would like to see the kit and our work in person we encourage you to stop by our shop. In addition our GS will be on display this weekend Saturday, October 17 at Formula D Irwindale in the Falken Tire display area.


Kits are in stock now for first and second generation GS chassis. SC and IS chassis kits will be available soon. All kits come with our full support if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask at any time we'd love to help.

Contact us for special limited Clublexus pricing.

Checkout our 2GS build thread here if you haven't already... this is Jay Pizarro::CleanS14's car http://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-s...-fun-pics.html
We will also be starting a build thread on our SC project which should be running in about 3 weeks!

question on the swap though, do we loose all the comfort features that are controlled by our ECU by going with this swap? The above car had to change their gauge cluster correct? I'd love to put a LS6 in my GS and call it the day.

Availability of this part COMPLETELY flips the script on motor swaps for the GE.

I ran the Stack because I wanted to... I still have the use of all accessories via the main ECUs from Lexus... Only the motor runs off of the GM ECM. Just like most/all motor swaps.

Really, someone needs to explain to us how this can integrate with the existing GS platform...what you gain, what you loose, etc.. The potential of this as an option to the GTE, NA-T, or SC is exciting!
