I'm waiting on a call back to get an update on where this shipment is. I cannot wait until we have this shipment in hand because this has been the most frustrating process ever.

I dunno if you can assume changing fabricators will improve it. Seems like this is pretty common when dealing with fabricators fabricating custom parts from what I have seen/experienced.

Who's making these? Or rather, where are they being made? Are they made outside of the US? Just curious.

I got an email that the trucking company is supposed to call me Monday to arrange delivery and I should have them guaranteed by Wednesday. We will see if that holds true.

I just spoke to the freight company. We will have a delivery tomorrow. Hopefully everything that is supposed to be on there is on there. If we get the shipment early enough we will start shipping mounts tomorrow. If not, we will do so the day after.

Can you give me a nice discount on a set of pulleys since all this hassle lol. You can ship them out at the same time as my mount if you can do a good price. I would like oem size unorthodox set. Eventually I will buy my coil overs from you guys also once I'm able to drop $1,180 on the set.

Anyone install a set on the 6 speed model yet? Hoping to receive the side mount by next week and I'll have them installed sometime next week.

Truly hope there isn't an issue with the side mount alignment like originally posted by the one member. I'll keep everyone posted once they are installed with a detailed review soon.

Yes, we have installed 2 sets: one on an Auto TL and one on a CL-S 6 Speed. All the mounts fit fine. We did not have to modify anything.

yea, i was the auto and they've been going strong since the install... finally been able to put some miles and abuse on them and they're holding up strong... now that they've settled in vibrations have toned down!!!

Overall, one of the best mods I've done.. especially if you've got a bunch of power mods.. helps tie it all together!!!

Apparently I was the only one with the side mounting problem...which I don't get because there's only 3 holes. I think one other person modified the side mount, but they said it wasn't as off as mine appeared to be.

A few other members have widened the front and/or rear holes a little, but not sure if it was necessary or of it just made installation a little easier.

I think the general consensus is that they will fit fine/minimal modifying.

I shipped my mounts back over a month ago, to get the correct bushings installed. I still haven't gotten my question answered about the bushing shipment yet, so I don't know when I'll have them back...

EDIT: And let me know what Alben is charging to install them! Tell him I'm inquiring too.

I'm trying to do it same time with clutch so he won't have to charge me full price since tranny will be out of way. The main problem to me is trying to install rear mount, but don't worry i will still ask him for you

Cool, thanks man. I can do the mounts, but they are a bitch/hassle. I'd rather pay a little bit lol

So it's been over a week since I heard from excellerate about this issue. Anyone have any experiences with unmatched sets? Or better yet, does anyone have any good experiences with the mounts?

I think everyone with a manual who ordered got 2 front and 1 rear mount. We shipped back one of the fronts and got shipped a side mount. Just pm or email excelerate. He replies promptly to emails.
