make sure you use the right hardware for the job. that looks like an outer tie rod castle nut. It's probably not ideal for use on motor mounts which is why they probably came off. Im not trying to belittle you, just giving you some friendly advise because i used to do the same and spent a lot time on side of road fixing things because i didn't use the right hardware when i was younger lol. It's a cool car you got there, and i'm sure you'd rather be driving it other than reinstalling parts.

This is a m12x1.25 castle nut but I ripped both motor mounts and drilled cotter pin holes in em I garentee that nut isn't coming off and welded the cold pipe back up
Rotors r working wonderfully and the car ran only once at 10 psi a 13.6 1/4 mile she needs a re tune just isn't feeling the same after new oil and flush and new wastegate dum safc issues bummer BUT TIME TO REALLY SEE WHAT SHE CAN DO ON THE DYNO

Yeah the clutch is a heavy loud one. I squat 405lbs so I got used to it quick. I look forward to seeing the progress.
