So, what size and Thread pitch are these? I'm fairly sure that these will all be M10, and M12 sizes, but no clue about the thread pitch?

I have Coheed's former setup...super sentra ....and an issue I'm having is the tranny mount on the driver's side, top keeps trying to pull itself thru the mount.

I notice when getting on it, a very slight pull to the left and when I let off (put the clutch in), it pulls right....more like a shift to the right, very scary after a 4th/5th gear pull...it's a butt-puckering shiftyness, the kind that makes one glad there were four lanes and nobody next to you!

It has pulled the bushing thru the mount and sheared of the edge/collar of the bushing...


I have since replaced the bushing with a new one from Mazworks but I notice it trying to do it again so something else is going on. Any ideas?

Facts again: slight pull left when accelerating, hard shifty pull right after letting off/clutch in at high speed, after hard pull.

I'd like to say it's from too much POWA...but I don't think that's the case.

Very...interesting... I wonder how prevalent this issue is with the other 6-speed swappers...

Wont stop me from doing the swap... but that bushing has been on there for what 2 years now? and at 500whp



Does the front mount look twisted? Can you get the bushing back into the mount?

Havent had that issue with mine at all. Seems like maybe a rear mount issues allowing too much movement and causing that mount bracket to push the mount through.

You really need to have the aluminum spacers on there though. It should prevent that from happening as it takes all the play out of the mount.

At first glance, I thought the rear mount looked to be a little twisted but I was unsure...it didn't move though. I also had the axle bracket welded...pics later.

Yea, the other washer is on it's way....I couldn't wait.

Has anyone done this swap in a b15? I'd like info on the mounting and why I can't use a Specv slave cylinder.
