On my old R i had the nismo solid mounts and where there is a bracket on the front pipe that bolts to the car about halfway down frontpipe, they no longer lined up and being so solid the pipe wouldnt move so just didn't bolt it up.
When fitting the new one my mate heated up the bracket, hammered it across and kindly stuck a bolt in it for me to give some more support.
I then had a f*cking horrible rattle on left hand turns (didnt notice it after the bolt as had only driven 1 mile in the R before getting this done) also there was just constant vibration in the car (more excessive than usual nismo mount solid)
Anyway to cut long story short, as some of you know my actuator bracket bolts fell out, when i took the turbo off every bolt on the compressor was loose, finger tight :shock: :shock:
And i thought i wouldnt put this bolt back in and see if it made any diffference, well the bad vibration on left hand bends has gone and the vibrations in general, especially when pulling away have gone and has transofrmed the car.
So i'm wondering if this one f*cking bolt caused everything to be just that little too stiff and vibrated the turbo bolts loose
either way the car made some horrible banging with this bolt in so think i'll leave it out
