Neat! Thanks for the pictures! It appears that the NX uses the similar transmission mount as the P10.

What transmission is in your NX? 1999 P11?

My NX2000 is a german 100NX Gti, 1991 model SR20DE
My NX1600 is a swedish 100NX, 1991 model GA16DS

It looks like that mount will unbolt from the car, so why not just change to the other style so your insert will work?

I keep forgetting you are not in the USDM!

Those cooling fins on the front of the transmission case are usually signs of a newer transmission. I have no clue what transmission came in stock cars. I do not believe they have vin plates on those transmissions but if there was one it would be at the top of the bell housing.

You can always try to swap bracket bolted to the chassis if they are the same? @eric96ser beat me to it.

Yeah,sorry about confusing you with the EDM stuff

Swapping the brackets. Exactly what I'm planning to do. It's getting late now, and I need sleep, so watch this space again tomorrow!

@Kyle - All american(this side of the pond) B13s have the same transmission mount, whether it be a 2.0 or 1.6

That is what I thought.

Dala, keep in mind that 1 of the motormounts of the USDM differs from the EDM ones. This is why a set of Prothanes meant for a USDM B13 WON'T fit on an EDM one.

Eventually, people picked up on this, and now @GregV has a separate set for the EDM/AUDM B13/N14:

USDM:
Motor Mount Set, FITS: B13 Our mounts are designed to limit unwanted movement and control torque the


EDM/AUDM:
Motor Mount Set, FITS: Australian Pulsar N14 models


You need another one of these:

Even Nissan4u mentions it:

EDIT: @GregV: You might even want to add the EDM part to the set you sell for the AUDM N14 (which will also fit the B13 NX).

Now the question is, why did my car come with a P10 mount?!?

That mount is not the same as the P10 mount. You are passing bad info.

This is a P10 mount. It's a lot thicker and the I.D of the metal sleeve is 82 mm/ 3.22"
