    There is a difference in the way the upper mounts are assembled between turbo and non-turbo. The FSM will a better picture of it.

    1986 300ZX Turbo…sold
    1990 Skyline GT-R…new money pit
    2014 Juke Nismo RS 6-speed…daily

    The two piece mount used on the turbos was retarded. I still don't understand why they would 1) overengineer such a simple part 2) if it was so awesome then why would they install them on the turbos but not on n/a's?

    But yes, there were two. Don't think the one piece mount was available from Nissan last I checked.
