first saw it in SCC when they dropped a VQ into a 240sx. Very funny at first, but after reading some more it seem quite economical. Some pucks, a little welding and taa daa! brand new, stiff engine mounts! pretty cool stuff...keep us updated on vibrations!

No welding necessary, I just drilled a hole into the middle, and used a spare maxima motor mount bolt and nut I had, with some washers. Fit perfectly. And when I try and rock the engine, it moves the entire car, so I'm guessing it's pretty stiff.
An entertaining read, but I'd not be looking to save $120 to jury rig my engine mounts.
Perhaps they work, but I won't substitute pucks for a metal encased oem Toyota Supra direct bolt in that is about $60 each.
But I'm not about to tell you where to spend your hard earned money, but I'd be damned if I'd trust hockey pucks with the power my 2j's making and is capable of.
i agree with the above statement. as a temp fix yes i can agree it probably works well. but in the long run there is a reason for using a factory mount to support your engine. but very creative idea !!
