I seem to have a broken engine mount, do you recommend powerflex ones?

Also saw that people put the 19 16v engine mount? Wich one is it?

If you're on about the dogbone mount, then yes powerflex bushes are a cost effective solution.

As for the R19 mount, it's more commonly referred to as the 4th mount, it's the same as fitted to a 172 & consists of a bracket that bolts to the gearbox and a rubber that bolts to the bracket and the subframe. They're a direct fit & require no modifications :winkey:

Not if your running the Williams gearbox strap. This needs trimming.

If it helps, here is what the R19 "4th mount" looks like when fitted to the subframe: http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j299/2stis/subframe.jpg

Is that a bottom strut brace?
Still available ... probably not!

Yes, that's a lower strut brace. I'm not sure if they are still available - I can tell from the photo that it was taken on my old driveway and since I moved over 4 years ago I would think I must have bought it about 5 years ago!
