The subframe needs to be mounted reverse way's, because the audi engine and gearbox has the steering rack mounted in front of the axle.

Not a problem considering the chassis legs needed to be drilled regardless.

This is the passenger side mount completed

This is the beggining of the driver side mount. I cant finish this until i know the clearance of the steering rack.

These are the two engine mounts i made for the audi block, they utilise the skyline engine mounts
because the engine weights are the same and if needed i can change them to GTR or polyurethane

I have notched the passenger chassis leg to clear the A/C pump it is only a few mm close, but i would rather have decent clearance all round
