engine torque damper

Z370Z011 · 10-20-2012, 08:17 PM

wasn't sure where to post it, but i haven't been able to find much info on this.
i was wondering if there are torque dampers available for our cars? and would they be of any use to our engines? thanks

Not needed. Far as I know. Only sideways mounted 4 cylinder cars had them. Usually one end mounted on the head, and the other end mounted on the radiator support.

I remember they made them for vq35's. Not sure if they fit ours though.

I always thought these were a bandaid for when your engine mounts got old and you didn't want to replace them.
