Toy Tuning Uprated Polyurethane Engine Mount Bushes for all Toyota Starlet EP82 and EP91 models.

Toy Tuning Uprated Poly Urethane Engine Mount Bushes replace the your original rubber bushes with Polyurethane, a much stronger and more durable material. These will reduce weight transfer of the engine improving torque, traction & engine response. They will also increase chassis rigidity, steering response and will reduce the dreaded wheel hop, a huge problem with the Starlets on launches.

These are an ideal replacement for your original OEM worn rubber engine mounts, these also make a good alternative to the mildly uprated TRD rubber bushes which still suffer similar problems with a considerable saving cost wise. The main problem with rubber engine mounts is that you get a lot of play from hard driving and heavy launching. When the engine torques over, it puts pressure on the mounts before it goes through the wheels. Once the engine mounts are pushed to the limit the wheels start turning. What happens is that the engine bounces violently causing a little more power to hit the ground (from the tension in the bushings) which in turn causes the car to hop.

Most Starlets out there are driven fairly hard and the rubber mounts soon perish causing excessive strain on the drivetrain, poor driveability and reduced rigidity. We rebuild a lot of Starlets and 9/10 the engine mounts are in very poor condition so these are a great option for those who want to improve on their current setup. These are fine for street cars, track day cars and qtr mile cars. You will feel a little more vibration on idle but no more than installing an engine torque damper or engine brace. If you have a circuit only Starlet then please contact us to discuss solid engine mounts as these still retain some flexibility making them suitable for the majority of the market.

The Full kit includes all three bushes, R/H Engine, L/H Engine and the G/Box Mount. Installation of the bushes is very simple and you don't need any specialist equipment, all you need to do is remove your engine mounts, press the old bushes out and insert the new ones. Removing the old bushes and installing the new uprated ones will take no more than a few minutes. Put them back on the car and off you go!
