My stock mount is basically a square pattern. The ESP mount is an isosceles triangle. The holes won't line up.

Originally posted by domesticated View PostSo I finally get around to changing my rear motor mount. Still has the auto mount and bracket. Anyway, I get all the stuff taken apart and two bolts off the mount and I realize it's a 4 bolt. My ESP mount is a 3 bolt. I didn't know there was a 4 bolt. WTF do I do now? The rear one was torn completely loose. Need a replacement. I have a 100 dollar mount I cant use unless the frame has holes for both types.

I'm guessing it has the bolt pattern for both mounts built in?'93 H22A 5SPD SE - MRT - DIY-Turbo Sizing

I didn't know there was a 4 bolt either. I have had my ESP sitting on the shelf for a year now. Hopefully I have both patterns.'93 H22A 5SPD SE - MRT - DIY-Turbo Sizing

I feel as though it was so stupid for them to make a 3 mount and a 4 mount for these cars. Why couldn't they all just been 4 or 3? I was in your situation when doing my swap and I had to send my innovative mounts back to get the 4 point ones. Had to pay a restocking fee and wait another month.Originally posted by cb9lovewhen all the cali cb's get forced off the road send em back too Ohio, we will still run them cats or not.

The innovative 4 bolt is taller and uses the auto bracket. I want to switch to the manual bracket so my shift cables aren't under tension.'93 H22A 5SPD SE - MRT - DIY-Turbo Sizing

I'll post some pictures, but long story short I actually had a 3 bolt, but the OE hydro bushing mount doesn't use the same 3 bolts as the ESP mount. Also some bad ass news, the mount and auto bracket can be removed completely through the top (minus the 3 bolts for the bracket which have to be removed from underneath) by simply dismounting the throttle body. It was even done without removing the coolant lines. Super easy. Anyway the long hydro bushing mount and the long bracket can be finagled through the opening without having to remove any other lines. Thanks for the help and encouragement guys!'93 H22A 5SPD SE - MRT - DIY-Turbo Sizing

Here are some pics from the motor mount swap. My drivetrain feels so solid now!
You can kind see how I finagled it out.
Though it would be easier to get it out through the bottom if you removed the axle.
