drivers side seems to be a common failure.

theres been quite a few mount revisions over the years. Go to nissan to buy genuine. Theyre not too expensive (should be around $170 all up for the 2 parts).

My drivers side is broken at the moment. Bloody thing has moved right over and I can't get to the bolts which hold it to the chassis. :P

buy yourself a 13mm ratcheting ring spanner aswell for undoing the chassis bolts, it makes life alot easier. i found that undoing the engine nut on both sides and jacking the whole engine up from the pan (with a lot of timber to spread the weight and then undo the chassis nuts but for reversal i put them on the engine first then lowered the engine onto the chassis.
