ZPIracing is proud to announce the Pre-release of there now motor mount kit for the Scion tC. These will be a full polyurethane mount insert that will result in 75% less travel of the engine under acceleration. Keeping it polyurethane also will allow the mount to absorb the vibration at idle to keep the cabin rattle free.

This is a must have for you turbo and supercharged cars while great results will be seen in the N/A cars with bolt on modifications to stock platforms. This will eliminate the dreaded tire hope that is commonly found in the tC platform.

We said that we where not going to do a pre-order after the turbo kits but we found ourselves in a position where we need to. We had to order an initial 1000 mounts to have these made to our design. So to make sure that we are not stuck with all of these at time of arrival we will make some pre-order pricing to help take some of the excessive inventory right off the bat.

We are promised delivery January 15th so we are going to promise delivery to you February 15th as we see no reason as to why there will be any delay but nothing exceeding 30 days. All of these will ship together no batches as we will take delivery on them at one time.

We will offer these at a pre-order price of $95 and a retail price of $165.00

What's the hardness on these? RAAMaudio went aroun 80+ poly on his front and had some major vibrations.,,, I'm interested, as I was going to mold myself some... as I hate hop...

What Shore A Hardness is the poly?

Thanks, Interesting and about time they came out.... no more dampeners.... fix it the right way!

Im interested , can you post pics ?

yes yes need more info

They just don't stop do they? Sweet!

you want my next paycheck very badly dont you.

Thanks, Interesting and about time they came out.... no more dampeners.... fix it the right way!

So what are the pros and cons of using motor mounts versus an engine dampner? If both eliminate hop and engine movement, is the main difference that motor mounts are more permanent?

It's about where the weight is and how the engine moves on it's pivot points... the dampener fixes with problem of the wimpy oem mounts, the mounts fix the real problem... the mounts themselves.

Not the real stock one but a motor mount:

hmm so this will compliment the damper.....nice.

Nice, that is exactly what I have on my tc but I have it in the back mount.

hmm so this will compliment the damper.....nice.

I'm pretty new to this so does this actually compliment a dampner or replace the need for a dampner altogether?

Well the motor mounts are design to suppress engine vibrations. That is why you don’t feel the engine inside the car. By adding a damper you will be helping the stock motor mounts. This is a good thing, now went the engine generates more power (turbo, s/c) and usually people add a superior clutch and/or pressure plate, the motor vibrations become stronger or the motor will jerk to the point that can cause what is call engine hope or tire hope and will actually destroy the stock motor mounts with in time. That is why the damper was invented and it is the easies way to reduce motor vibrations but is not the best way. The best way will be by replacing the motor mount like the one ZPIracing is selling. The only think to take in consideration is the material in which the mounts are made off, some are so hard that the vibrations inside the car become uncomfortable and are not desirable at all. Also remember that most cars have 4 motor mount and the motor jerk from one site the other. I hope this can help.

How easy is an install?

No good if' they are $95 to buy but need the entire engine lifting and will cost $600 to install.

Also, what are the downsides? What parts 'could' this cause to fail (according to Toyota in 2 years that is?)

Install it yourself, we ve installed mounts on 2 cars not hard at all, we did have to lift the engine but thats no biggie. Good job to zpi btw I trust zpi more and more after they keep releasing products for the tc.

I might have to get in on this

Lifting the engine is no biggie? Scale of 10, 10 being a clutch change, 1 being an oil change.

So not to beat a dead horse, but if I purchase these in addition to my engine dampner, that would be a little overkill? And like Limey asked, what are the downsides?

bump for more info on install.

I agree with Limey above... Lifting the engine is definitely a Biggie...! I'd like to see the pics and know how hard is to install those babies... :tap:

We do not have pics of the final product...We will not have pics of these until we get the shipment in with the ones that we are selling.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO REMOVE THE ENGINE TO INSTALL THESE

These will install very easy. You can remove one mount at a time and switch the mounts and move on to the next one. These should install in under 1 hour.

Thanks

-ZPIracing

i did these in my focus. i didnt have to remove the engine, just place a floor jack under it so once the mount is off the engine stays in the same position making it easier when you reinstall

Bump for Hardness? 70/80/90?

im in.

would you want to install the damper? .....then engine was designed to move.... thats why it does..... the new mounts sound like a good idea but wouldnt installing the damper also be a bad thing?

I didnt mean take the engine out I just meant we had to place a jack and lift the engine a litle higher very little not too hard. Plus if what zpi says its true ( idont see why it wouldnt be) you just have to put something under the engine so it wouldnt move when the mounts are taken out then the new ones in sounds about the same as what we had to do, really guys if you can change your oil install an intake you should be able to do this not much harder.

how many mounts do we have? 2 ?

how many mounts do we have? 2 ?

At least 3, one on each side, and one in the front.

front? isnt it usaully by the bulkhead?

front? isnt it usaully by the bulkhead?
I'm looking at the pdf from techinfo.toyota.com right now, its in the front.

one is a tranny mount, i think the motor mounts are front and back. 2 of em.

one is a tranny mount, i think the motor mounts are front and back. 2 of em.

The front one may be bolted to the tranny, but since the tranny is bolted to the engine, it really doesnt matter. The rubber "insulators" are on the sides, one left, one right, and the third is in the front, if you are standing in front of the car, looking at the engine, the front one is to the right of the header/exhaust manifold. Kinda hidden from view from underneith by the crossmember its sitting ontop of.

im in for the pre order

how many mounts do the tC have? 3??? the back mount of the engine causes the most vibration to the cabin. i dont think adding just the front ones will cause vibration, though you gotta get your moneys worth.

i doubt adding mounts and torque damper together would hurt your car. but im pretty sure you can feel the pull when you shift...

these mounts are really good especially for FI tC's, it would make a huge difference probably if you add the torque damper too... but mounts NA tC's would perform the same as damper, and together just improves slightly.

IMO, id rather get mounts than damper....

ZPI gots it for 99 bucks for pre-order? thats a deal..

the tc should have 4 mounts.. one on each side, and one on the front and one on the back, if it didnt, i would be very surprised...

the tc should have 4 mounts.. one on each side, and one on the front and one on the back, if it didnt, i would be very surprised...

Hrmm.. double checking the pdf file I have, looks like you may be right, its odd, the way they have you remove the engine from the vehicle, is after you disconnect everything, you unbolt the cross members and drop the engine/transaxle down with the crossmembers still attached. then remove the crossmembers from the engine/transaxle. I overlooked the step that says to remove the RR insulator, which I guess is the rear one.

that makes sense... the mounts on the front and the back of the motor should be on the cross member... the back one is bigger then the front one.. the front one is ther to stop the motor for rocking back and forth.. the third is on the side where the tranny is, thats pretty big as well.. then you get the big mount on the side and you can see it when you open the hood, its by the head

Dumd question, sorry, but is it 96 dollars each mount? thanks.

No way.... For the set I'm sure...

are these inserts that need to be pressed? or are they like the energy suspension type that are cut in half and you put them in like that? personally i would much rather have full inserts that have to be pressed

I believe they stated that they needed to be pressed.... ZPI? you around?

Yes they gotta be pressed in, ZPI mention'd that already. Just take em to a local shop that has a press, shouldnt be that expensive.

Or buy mounts from a salvage yard, and press em in ahead of time, to save some hassle.

this is starting to sound alot more complicated to install than previously stated

bump

i just pre-ordered mine, but is there any info on hardness?

I've asked and gave up.... I'd REALLY like to know as well...

Screw vibrations and noise I want these! Would probably go great with my Stiffy! Id have a shop do it cause yeah...

this sounds like its gonna be a dumb question but how do you preorder ...cause im in.

Bump for hardness!

hey ZPI,

any update on this? any hardness info? did you guys receive the mounts on Jan 15?

so the Feb 15 date still looks good.....? :pray:


sorry...i already pre-ordered mine awhile back, but i just need some new info to hold me over :blah:

are the installation directions going to come with these? Just placed my order

so these should arrive.......today

hopefully :pray:

i called today to check to see if they got them in and to find out the hardness. they didn't get them in but kenny placed a call to find out where they are. kiesha said she was going to call me tomorrow when she finds something out, so i'll post up here and pass the message. i didn't really expect them to be on the 15 but i have total faith in ZPI and i'm sure they'll get these out to us as fast as they can.

since they don't make them inhouse there isn't really anything they can do. ____ happens and things get delayed. nothing we or ZPI can do about it. just be thankful you aren't waiting like people were for the TRD supercharger :P

so, did these come in yet?

ZPI,
just wondering if there were any updates on the motor mounts.

no rush intended as i'd rather have best quality possible.

are the installation directions going to come with these? Just placed my order

If not I would be happy to do a kaeon DIY on these :lalala: :lalala: Hint Hint ZPI!!!

any update on the mounts? I know there were issues with making them to ZPI's standards so they were shipped back but .... any update on when the new ones are being shippped?

nothing...still?

i have heard it will be another couple of weeks (so a month or so I guess.)

I am not 100% sure on the TC but I have done engine mounts on a number of other cars and its not all that hard to do on a scale of 1 to 10 Ide say its about a 4/5 to do. I am going to order the mounts soon so I will post a walk through as soon as I get them.
P.S. Ill include pics

i would like that because I am going to be installing them myself and have never done mounts before. The guy I work with has so it shouldnt be an issue but having pictures of the exact setup helps nomatter what.

Well I Orderd the mounts today so I hope to have them installed before Friday, so I can brake them in on the way to Cali

:rofl: you can't be serious :rofl: . They don't even have them in stock.

Well I was serious but since they are out of stock for now I guess Ill just have to wait now wont I.

yeah you will. They have never been in stock as they have not been released yet.

Not even an update on anything? It has been a month since supposed date of receipt.............glad I didn't order yet........

Dear ZPIracing Customers,


I know that you all have been patiently awaiting the release of our highly anticipated motor mount upgrades. As you all are very aware that after the initial design we do not do much in the manufacturing arena and we sub this out to some of the best in the business.

We got our first set of test mounts in early January and they where off a little but the overall quality was there. This is as to be expected as we have had these guys make mounts for us before. We then noted the changes re-designed the schematic and sent them back. We anticipated a great product and continued the pre-order discount. We then in the first of February got a large shipment of the mounts in and they appeared to be correct, we test fit them on one of our project tC and they did not fit any where near our standards. We have made the correct changes and are hoping have these back in stock very shortly.

We thought we would offer you some options for our great customers who continue to support ZPIracing and all that we do. We understand that you have been without the money for some time and that you are entitled to something. We will also be including some free apparel upon shipment of these as well including but not limited to t-shirts, hats, decals, pens, etc.!

1. Continue to show you support and wait for us to deliver you the product at the quality that you would expect from ZPIracing. We will give you 10% off your next order for your patience.

2. If you no longer want to wait we understand and there is no hard feelings we will refund your money and apologize for not making the deadline we set forth for ourselves.


Thanks again for the continual support all of you show us. We greatly appreciate it and we will continue to bring you the products that you want at a price you can live with. We are forever grateful of the Scion community and all they have allowed us to do.

yeah, I see the price is not $165 so I guess the pre-order is over.

yeah, I see the price is not $165 so I guess the pre-order is over.

you mean to say ...it is $165 so it must be over. I would assume its over because the price was around $110 if i can remember right.

yeah, I meant "now" and I typed "not"

:P

so nobody but me is saying ... "what the hell is going on" --- have any of you guys tried going to: http://www.zeropointindustries.net/store/product_info.php?products_id=128 ....yea .. the mounts arent there anymore!

^^ there was a design flaw with the design they reecived and wasnt easy for us the consumer to installs ot hey sent it back once more.

:rofl: typical :rofl:

Well I was one of the very first pre-orders and have been e-mailed back recently about them. I was told that they had another company finishing them up and that they were almost ready. I know ZPI is very busy and is trying to get it done, but done right. So if I can wait since I ordered back in January, so can everyone else.

yea - i was one of the first pre orders also - thats why i was wondering what was going on. I am happy w/ the price I paid but would like to see the product also.

as well, i was on board early. talked with kenny last week
they went another route in the design/material process, they are going to be emailing customers this week with that info

Continue to show you support and wait for us to deliver you the product at the quality that you would expect from ZPIracing. We will give you 10% off your next order for your patience.

10% off the stage 1 turbo kit? :)

To Whom It May Concern:


I know a lot of you have been awaiting the release of our motor mounts for awhile now and that we have not been the best at sending these updates. With the shootout the shop has been crazy and I apologize for that. We have been working diligently on the mounts trying to remedy the problems that continue to arise.


We have been getting our samples in from the factory and they continue to not fit to our likings. It seems the polyurethane takes on a mind of its own whenever we have it cut small enough to fill the mounts. We have started to look in another direction that would increase the overall price but offer a much nicer mount.


The new mounts that we started developing last week will be an entire mount replacement not just an insert. The new mounts will be billet housing with a poly center section very similar to the motor mount kits for popular Honda swaps. We will have the design down by the end of this week and will have the drawing sent over to the factory and get a prototype one done for you all to see pictures etc… and for us to test fit the product.


The retail pricing of the new mounts will go more toward the $400 dollar range. We will give every motor mount order that is still pending pre-order or not the mounts for the price already paid. I apologize for the wait again I know it is hard to wait for something that you want and I had no intentions of it taking so long I just can’t ship something I am not happy with. The guys in the shop continue to bust ___ in attempt to get the parts out and I am personally very grateful for the support and business that you all continue to show us. For this I simply say Thank You.


Kenny Strickler

^^^^see, told you

glad I filled my mount with urethane.

so thats saying that we are getting the new mounts for the $$ we already gave them for the pre order?

Right

Continue to show you support and wait for us to deliver you the product at the quality that you would expect from ZPIracing. We will give you 10% off your next order for your patience.

10% off the stage 1 turbo kit? :)

i wonder if that will be honored

Hopefully. I'm planning on redeeming mine on a clutch, flywheel, lsd purchase, lol

can i still get in on these mounts?

Im interested in these as well. I tried searching on the site, but didnt have any luck.

Jon

as far as i know - they are redoing the mounts and any new people are going to have to wait for now. I would give it a few weeks and give them a call and see what they say. Anything before then is going to be a waste of time because I just informed u of the latest news (which was emailed to me because I am on the preorder for the original mounts)

yup^^^
wait a few weeks until they get a few of these to test fit
but if you want to jump on board now, your not gonna get the price us pre-order peeps get

Are they going to be any stiffer now becuase its the whole mount? I want stiffness just not to a point of where its not dd anymore(cd skipping at idle hehe)

GOOD NEWS!! I just received an email update today in reply to my email sent on sunday.

"The new complete engine mounts have completed the design and approval phase and are now beginning the process of being built and assembled. At this point in time I do not have an accurate ETA on these, however we will be posting updates as we get them."

SSOOOO - its looking good!!

niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice 8)

So they are saying that if you didn't preorder, you have to pay close to $400 for these? :shock:

$400.00? no thanks, I'll pass

$400 for these types of motor mounts isn't that bad..

They're very close to the same price for various other cars.

My friend purchased some motor mounts for his GTi VR6 a few months back and it came to $550..

That preorder was the best thing I've ever done, lol

yes it was

who told you that wasnt the story. I copied and pasted the email -- maybe I need to find it and give them a call myself. I emailed them and also spoke to the only woman on AIM ..... I didn't get an email back either time. When I spoke to her on AIM there was a meeting going on or something so she said she would email me tomorrow. Then I emailed zpi asking for a reply ....no reply. What really is going on here? Sounds like its nothing but a stall.

i've had the ingalls for about 2 months now...it is nice, but like many have said before, it's only a "band-aid" solution to the problem.


i'm actually surprised other manufacturers haven't decided to make motor mounts for the tC yet. :tap:

i have the same email, as i get updates. but i called last week to verify and NO ONE had any idea about that email, and i spoke with keisha

im just saying, if its gonna take longer, then say so. but dont send me a teaser email saying the design is complete and they are beg. to assemble,etc. and then not post anymore info a month later

i have no problem waiting, im not running my car this season anyways, its under reconstruction. so i dont NEED them, (now), but i will soon

i 2nd that

ZPI always does that.^^

after the sending of the update that they did not like the design that they were sent and were having problems putting it in, they said it was sent back for a better design. that design was sent back again because of the same problem. zpi has now recived a model that fits and they like, will be developing after that everyone who prepaid was sent an email about the new billet style that was going to be used, and that there was no eta for it.

anything new??? its been a month since the last update on motor mounts

Probably nothin new, but Speed-Source.net is working on mounts for the tC. I believe they will actually pull through. :D

Although there was an underlying sarcasm in my post, I wouldn't mind having a nice set of mounts. The filled ones and extra tranny brace I'm using now work, but would be complimented with a nice set of poly mounts.

Who makes these motor mounts?

ZPI??


Oh no thank you

:rofl:

Actually, I have yet to see any proof that they ever made anything. :shrug:

Oh I'm sure they havent even bothered making them because they didnt have enough "pre order funds" to even start making them but its ZPI so I'm sure they were going to use that money towards tricking out their shop cars or working on parts for other customer cars, or even taking the customers out to dinner when they drive 12+ hours to the shop or something

:rofl:

What a joke

:yawn:

yeah peteyd, check please.

The tC motor mounts are not a dead project we are actually developing a complete billet replacement mount that will be a complete exchange for the existing mount. The customers whom have a deposit on the polyurethane inserts in which we initially developed but in the end where unhappy with the end result will get the bill replacement mounts at no additional cost.



The new mounts will retail somewhere in the $399 range. We are expecting some sample sets to go out to some of the first customers who ordered and stuck it out with us sometime in late august. We will refund the preorder price to anyone who has the inserts on order if they no longer want to wait without hesitation.

Inserts can be done for a lot cheaper, dont know how many people are going to want to foot a $400 bill for mounts.. Speed-Source is working on the poly mounts at least.

Agreed, Billet mounts are overkill for 80 percent of the people that need/want them anyway. Inserts would work perfectly.

ill believe it when i see those motor mounts at my door step
nothing against ZPI, ive just been waiting so long its just wutever at this point
but for a complete replacement, im not going to retract my pre-order price
its a nice deal, but still
:yawn:

ScionBandit, can you get me a part # for the front motor mount(closest to radiator) Im gonna buy one and work some magic..

/\/\ fill it with urethane, i thought about ordering spare mounts and doing that myself

ScionBandit, can you get me a part # for the front motor mount(closest to radiator) Im gonna buy one and work some magic..

yes i can, tomorrow for you

well 2 weeks ago ZPI said they had the mounts and were ready for testing ...anybody have word on these?

nope, nothing yet...but i haven't been on SL for a few weeks

well its been over a month with out an update :nope: ZPI please try to keep us up to date better, I dont care if its "we put the project aside for the last month" or "testing is going good/bad but we arnt ready to release yet". Please do something people should not have to ask for updates.

Overpriced and not worth insanely long wait.

Overpriced and not worth the wait? Seems that is an oxymoron considering the guys who have been waiting will receive these full billet mounts at their original purchase price of $99.00....

Again, like we noted before in another thread, if you are tired of waiting please call the shop, we will be more than happy to immediately refund your money.
